Neuroplasticity 101

We often hear about neuroplasticity, but what is it exactly? 🤔⁣

Put simply,To breakdown the word, neuro = brain, plasticity = the ability to be shaped or molded.⁣

Put together neuroplasticity refers to the brain’s ability to be shaped or molded.⁣

When your brain is presented with a stimulus, it forms neurological pathways to transmit the signal of this stimulus. It does this so it can give an appropriate response or reaction.⁣

⁣

In a basic sense, it accounts for why we flinch when we touch hot objects. Then avoid touching the same object without checking.😬🔥 ⁣

⁣

In a more abstract sense this accounts for us associating memories with certain stimuli, such as scent or sound. 😌⁣

⁣

What happens in your physical brain is that your brain cells reshape themselves so that when you re-encounter the same stimulus, you respond faster to it.⁣

⁣

This ability to reshape itself is essentially neuroplasticity.⁣

⁣

As you can imagine, this ability is highly useful for learning and memory. 🧠⁣

⁣

As we age, the brain has less plasticity. This is because of the lifetime of encounters already established.👴⁣

⁣

Some studies show positive benefits of exercise, meditation, and a healthy lifestyle to boost neuroplasticity. ⁣

If you had infinite neuroplasticity, what would you want to learn?🧐

To help improve focus and concentration try implementing a natural nootropic such as F’ing Focus or F'ing Clarity. 🧠

💥Natural Nootropics such as F’ing Focus act as a vasodilator against the small arteries and veins in the brain meaning more blood is able to transport vital nutrients and oxygen to the brain to improve cognition and energy use.
