The human brain is probably the most mysterious organ in our body.

大腦可說是人體內最神秘的器官。

Scientists keep learning new facts about its work, but It still hides a lot of secrets.

科學家不斷研究習得關於大腦的新知，但大腦仍充滿著謎團。

That's why we decided to acquaint you with the brightest discoveries of the last few years in the field of brain research.

所以我們決定告訴你們近幾年關於大腦研究的重大發現。

There are a few simple ways to boost your intellect and improve your brain power, and they will surely surprise you!

有一些簡單的方法可以增加智力、增強腦力，且它們絕對會讓你感到驚訝。

Well, keep sitting there and you'll learn something.

繼續坐著看完影片，你就能學到東西了。

Number nine - chronic lack of sleep worsens memory.

第九，經常性睡眠不足會導致記憶力下降。

Scientists from the University of California at Berkeley have found convincing proof that a lack of sleep can worsen memory and cause Alzheimer's.

加利福尼亞大學柏克萊分校的科學家發現有力證據指出睡眠不足會讓記憶力下降，並導致阿茲海默症。

During a full night's sleep, brain cells remove toxic compounds dangerous for our brain.

整夜睡眠能使腦細胞除去對大腦有害的有毒化合物。

If a person never gets enough sleep, it has a devastating effect on their brain cells.

如果有人總是睡不夠，這會對他的腦細胞造成極大傷害。

Number eight - prolonged stress destroys the brain.

第八點，長期壓力會破壞大腦。

A decrease in memory, in the ability to learn, in self-control -- these are the consequences that chronic stress is fraught with.

記憶力、學習能力、自我控制能力下降，這些是長期壓力所伴隨的後果。

Also, it contributes to a person feeling irritation, anxiety, tension, and often being distracted.

再者，長期壓力常使人感到易怒、焦躁、緊張，還有分神。

Number seven - love and hate have a lot in common.

第七點，愛意與恨意有許多相似點。

British scientists found that love and hate originate in similar brain areas.

英國研究指出愛意與恨意在腦中相似的部位中產生。

However, unlike hatred, love significantly reduces the activity of the areas responsible for judgment and logical thinking.

然而，不同於恨意，愛意會讓腦中負責批判與邏輯部位的活動大幅減少。

Number six - the brain Is sensitive to dehydration.

Therefore, even a moderate loss of fluid (about 2%) reduces concentration and vigilance and leads to the deterioration of short-term memory and other cognitive abilities.

因此，即使只失去少部分的水 (約 2%)，也會降低專注力與警覺性，導致短期記憶下降與其他認知問題。

Number five - pregnancy changes the brain's structure.

Scientists proved that pregnancy reduces the amount of gray matter in the brain areas responsible for social cognition and the ability to understand other people.

科學家已證明懷孕會讓大腦的灰質體積減少，也就是負責社會認知與理解他人的部位。

All of it is necessary to strengthen the mother-baby connection, help a woman understand the needs of her child, and notice possible external dangers.

這都是為了強化母親與孩子的連結，讓媽媽能了解孩子的需求，並注意到可能的外在危險。

Number four - the abundance of sugar in the diet worsens memory and reduces the ability to learn.

第四，餐點含糖量太高會影響記憶力並降低學習能力。

The abundance of fructose in the diet slows down the brain and reduces its ability to learn, remember information, and concentrate.

餐點內過量的果糖會使大腦遲緩，降低大腦學習、記憶資訊與專注的能力。

This is because the excess sugar destroys neural connections in the brain.

原因是過量糖分會破壞大腦中的神經元連結。

Scientists emphasize that industrially produced sugar is much more harmful (added to soft drinks, seasonings, sauces, and baby food).

科學家強調加工糖分尤其有害 (常出現於無酒精飲料、調味料、醬汁與嬰兒食品)。

However, products containing Omega-3 fatty acids (such as fatty fish, nuts, and fish oil) remove the consequences of the disorder.

但含有 n−3 脂肪酸的食品 (如富含脂肪的魚、堅果與魚油) 可以改善上述的症狀。

So, we should have a can of sardines with a root beer.

所以，我們應該準備一罐沙丁魚與一瓶麥根沙士。

Number three - romantic love and maternal feelings are very similar.

第三，浪漫愛情與母愛只有一線之隔。

It turns out, according to brain activity, romantic relationships and maternal feelings are very similar, but there are differences as well.

根據大腦活動，浪漫的愛情與母愛感覺非常相似，但還是有差異。

For example, passionate love activates the brain areas related to sexual arousal.

舉例來說，快樂的浪漫活動會激發大腦與性慾有關的區域。

In addition, the feeling of anxiety and fear decreases, and the feeling of euphoria increases.

此外，焦慮與恐懼感會下降，而興奮感上升。

Maternal love activates the areas responsible for the formation of affection.

母愛則會激發大腦中負責形成情感的區域。

Number two - painting improves the work of the brain.

A study showed that painting and contemplations of works of art improve the interaction between brain areas while slowing its aging.

研究顯示，畫畫與欣賞藝術作品可以促進大腦各區域的互動，並減緩老化。

Scientists studied the influence of art on people aged 62 to 70 years old.

科學家研究了藝術對 62 歲至 70 歲的人的影響。

Half of them took a course in art history, and the other half took a course in painting.

一半的人選了一堂藝術歷史課，另一半學畫畫。

Painting classes gave a stronger result than art history.

學畫畫比學藝術歷史得到更好的結果。

And, number one - reading trains the brain.

Oxford Scientists proved that the process of reading trains the cognitive abilities of the brain.

牛津大學科學家已證明閱讀可以訓練大腦的認知能力。

It also activates areas that aren't used at other times.

也可以激發大腦中平常沒在使用的區域。

While reading, blood enters the brain areas responsible for concentration and cognition.

閱讀時，血液會進入大腦中負責專注與認知的部位。

It's noteworthy that this effect doesn't occur while watching TV or playing computer games.

值得注意的是，這個情形在看電視或玩電玩時不會出現。
