Is The Brain A Muscle?

Is the brain a muscle? In a lot of ways, we can consider the brain to be the most important part of our bodies. Which of course, makes it all the more confusing when you consider some of the things regarding the human brain that we just don’t fully understand. For example, what is a brain, anyway? How do we classify it? Is it an organ? A muscle? Or maybe it’s fat? Today, the writers at Bestie want to do a little research and shed light on this potentially confusing topic.

Summary:
So back to the question at hand, or should I say, at head: what is the brain, officially speaking? As Carl Sagan once said: “the brain is like a muscle. When it is in use we feel very good”. But did he mean for that to be taken literally? Well, most likely not.

While it contains very little actual muscle mass, it is possible to “work out” your brain, and your mental health is affected by exercise just like your physical health. It would be more accurate to call the human brain an organ, composed of nearly 60 percent fat as well as cells, nerve fibers, arteries and arterioles. It would also be accurate to label the brain as one of the most important organs in the human body, given the fact that it plays a role in all of our body’s other systems and functions including the control of other organs as well as our thoughts, memories, speech and movements.

At birth, the human brain weighs about 1 pound, and by the time we reach adulthood, the size and weight of the brain increase to somewhere close to 3 pounds. About 85 percent of that total weight comes from your brain’s cerebrum, which is divided into two cerebral hemispheres. The two hemispheres of your cerebrum are separated by a groove in the middle, known as the interhemispheric ridge. The two cerebral hemispheres can be divided further into four regions known as lobes. These lobes are each responsible for performing a number of different functions, such as memory, emotions, intelligence, processing your senses, and your ability to speak and move. At the back of your brain is a section known as the cerebellum, which assists in the body’s coordination and motor skills, and helps with your balance and posture. The base of your brain is connected to your spinal cord by the brain stem, consisting of the pons, midbrain and medulla oblongata. The brainstem is responsible for controlling many of your body’s functions that are carried out involuntarily, such as breathing, digestion of food, blood circulation, eye movement, and senses such as sight and hearing. The base of your brain also contains the diencephalon, which is made up of parts known as the thalamus, hypothalamus, and epithalamus. These parts of your brain are responsible for functions such as your sleep cycle, body temperature, hormones, and long-term memory, among others. Finally, your brain’s pituitary gland is attached to the hypothalamus and controls the rest of the hormone-producing glands within your body as well as functions such as growth and metabolism.

So based on this information, we’ve managed to establish that the brain is not, in fact, a muscle. But just because your brain isn’t a muscle, does that mean it can’t benefit from a good workout? Well, not in the conventional sense, anyways. While doing a set of ab crunches won’t raise your IQ, there are plenty of cognitive training tools, also known as “brain training” games or “brain exercises”, that you can do in order to “work out” your brain and improve cognitive function. Studies have indicated that at least some of these brain exercises can be useful for things such as improving memory as well as your brain’s processing speeds and executive functions. What’s also interesting is that studies appear to show that some exercises are more effective depending on the age of the subject performing them, with young people and older adults being shown to have varying levels of cognitive improvement from certain exercises.

In addition to improving basic functions, exercising your brain with cognitive abilities may also be useful when it comes to slowing the onset and effects of age-related neurological conditions, such as Alzheimer’s disease and dementia. In 2017, a study was conducted and published which linked a brain training intervention know as “speed of process training”and a reduced overall risk of dementia in individuals.
