Many people will have this experience, want to talk, but don’t know what they want to say when they open their mouth; As soon as I put down my things, I forgot where I put them; Walking on the road, but forgetting what to do… Nowadays, people’s memory is getting worse and worse, which seriously affects their work and life. What is the cause of poor memory? What methods can help improve memory?
three reasons for poor memory
1 insufficient sleep
Lack of sleep is one of the main causes of memory decline. Because lack of sleep can lead to brain cell death. Research shows that sleeping for 4-5 hours every night for three nights can kill 25% of brain cells. If enough sleep can be maintained, it is beneficial to strengthen the connections between neurons and enhance memory. For minors, it is recommended to go to bed before 11 p.m. and get up at 6-7 a.m.
2 obesity
The data show that obese people are three times more likely to have memory deterioration than normal weight people. Because the blood sugar in normal weight people is relatively stable, which is conducive to the health of the hippocampus of the brain and can effectively improve memory. It is suggested that overweight people should try to control their diet and exercise to regain their weight.
3 bad emotions
It is understood that negative, depression, anxiety and other bad emotions can cause memory decline. Because bad emotions can cause neurasthenia, lead to people’s inattention, and affect the memory ability of the brain. Memory decline will have an impact on life and work. In fact, just a few daily small actions, often done, can help improve memory.
do 6 more actions to help improve memory
action 1: “shake your head”
The cervical artery is the channel for the human body to supply blood to the brain. Doing more “head shaking” may make these tissues active, which can help strengthen the blood supply to the brain, reduce the deposition of fat in the cervical artery, and help prevent hypertension and cervical spondylosis.
action 2: stretch
Nowadays, people, especially office workers, are in a posture for a long time, which will lead to congestion in the peripheral blood vessels of the upper limb muscle tissue. Doing more stretching can help the muscles tighten and relax. The accumulated blood is pushed back to the heart, and the blood supply to the heart will increase, which is conducive to improving memory.
action 3: lift the leg
Do more leg raising movements, because when a person’s legs are slightly higher than his heart, the blood from his feet and legs will flow back to his lungs and heart, which can reduce the pressure of veins, increase the blood supply to his head, and improve his memory.
action 4: comb your hair more
Combing your hair more can help improve the blood supply of the scalp. From top to bottom, comb your hair 3-4 times a day, 3-5 minutes each time, which can help improve your intelligence, nourish your mind and strengthen your brain.
action 5: move your fingers more
Fingers are the second brain of people. People with poor memory can massage their fingertips alternately with their left and right hands at ordinary times, or they can often hold fitness balls with their hands, so that the two fitness balls rotate in their hands. Such a moving finger can stimulate the brain and delay the death of brain cells.
