You might still hold the belief that you cannot grow any new brain cells once you hit adulthood. It seems though, that this belief doesn’t hold true anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to neuroscientist Sandrine Thures adults are fully capable of growing new brain cells, regardless of their age. This was also the understanding of other researchers came to similar conclusions back in 2005 when they stated that the “adult mammalian brain creates new neurons from pools of stem-like cells”. This means that our brains aren’t as fixed as we once believed them to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The process of developing new brain cells is called neurogenesis and is most active during pre-natal development, continuing through adulthood (that’s why those years are so crucial for later on).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s all fun and games and good to know. But how can you grow new brain cells as an adult? Here’s the quick fix:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
