10 Effective Ways To Boost Your Intelligence
While highly intelligent seems gifted, there are actually a lot of efforts and determination
to achieve that.
For instance, your daily habits is the most effective ways to boost your intellect.
In this video, I'm going to show you 10 effective ways to boost your intelligence.

As scientists reveal that a weekend lie-in provides an essential boost to brain power,
Chris Buscombe explores 10 other factors which may help improve your intellect.
1.
Exercise.
It has been suggested as a means to improving brain capacity for several years, but scientists
continue to find new evidence which points to a link between physical and mental health.
A Cambridge University study suggested that jogging just a couple of times a week stimulates
the brain.
After a few days of running, hundreds of thousands of new brain cells were shown to have grown
in a region that is linked to the formation and recollection of memories.
An improved ability to recall memories without confusing them has a direct impact on other
crucial cognitive tasks, and could lead to potential new ways of slowing down the deterioration
of mental ability in old age.
Meanwhile, scientists have also recently found that particularly vigorous exercise helps
release a protein that goes by the name of 'noggin'.
The protein acts as a counter-agent to another protein, bone morphogenetic protein, thereby
stimulating the increased division of brain stem cells, keeping the brain nimble and active
as we get older.
Research suggests that amplified production of noggin could therefore prevent the on-set
of age-related brain diseases such as Alzheimer's.
2.
An Afternoon Nap.
While scientists have long suspected that sleep has a significant impact on the brain's
capacity for memory, recent research found that sleeping for an hour in the afternoon
boosts brain power and dramatically increases its ability to learn new facts and tasks.
Having a nap after lunch acts as a regenerative aid, allowing the brain to 'file' away
memories so that new information may be more easily retained.
The researchers discovered that those who stay awake all day are less likely to be able
to learn new tasks as the day goes on, leading the experts to suggest that napping in the
long-term may be conducive to staving off age-related degenerative mental diseases.
3.
Magnesium Rich Foods.
Eating foods rich in magnesium such as spinach and broccoli could boost memory and brain
power.
Recent research, published in the journal Neuron, found that an increase of magnesium
in the brain could help learning in both the young and old.
Half the population of industrialised countries have a magnesium deficit, but with the help
of a healthy increase in one's diet, the effects of mental ageing could be significantly
delayed.
4.
Sunbathing.
Scientists have found that increased exposure to the sun could boost your intellect and
prevent dementia.
A larger intake in vitamin D, which can also be found in oily fish, was linked to an amplified
ability to keep the brain active and in top condition as we age.
Although the biological reasons for a connection remain unclear, a study published in the Journal
of Neurology found that an association between increased vitamin D and faster information
processing was particularly significant in men over the age of 60 years.
5.
Mowing the Lawn.
Researchers have discovered that a chemical released by lawn mowing not only relieves
stress and makes people happier, but could also prevent mental decline in old age.
Australian scientists claimed that the aroma of freshly cut grass works directly on the
brain, particularly targeting areas associated with emotion and memory.
So confident are they in their findings that they even released a perfume, "eau de mow",
which can be used as either a personal spray, or in public to relax and stimulate the brain
of surrounding individuals.
6.
Sex and Chocolate.
A book has claimed that eating a lot of dark chocolate, having lots of sex and following
the Scandinavian tradition of having cold meat for breakfast significantly improves
brain power.
The book, by Simon Wootton and Terry Horne, analysed how diet, the environment and stress
affect mental capacity.
They asserted that while brain capacity has always been considered in terms of genetics,
it is in fact a lifestyle choice.
The two suggested that the thought processes induced by having sex, as well as the hidden
nutritional ingredients of dark chocolate and energy-giving qualities of cold meats,
stimulate the brain and help battle age-related mental deterioration.
7.
Music Lessons For Young.
A study has shown that young children who take music lessons show more advanced brain
development and improved memory than those who do not.
Musically trained children were found to perform better in a memory test which is correlated
with general intelligence skills such as literacy, verbal memory, mathematics and IQ.
The scientists who undertook the research suggested that music can potentially improve
the intellect in children as young as four years old.
8.
Talking to your Baby.
Experts have claimed that mothers who use baby talk help their child's brain develop
better.
Researchers from Northwestern University in Illinois found that words play an important
role in the brain development of children even before they begin to speak.
The study suggested that an increased capacity to be able to categorise words according to
their pictorial representation at an early age was a significant aid in child brain development.
9.
Tetris.
A study by American scientists found that the classic computer puzzle Tetris may also
have a positive impact on your brain power.
Tests showed that despite being relatively simple compared to today's sophisticated computer
games, regular practise could increase a player's grey matter and improve thinking.
Having played the game for half an hour each day over a three month period, subjects' brains
were found to have undergone 'structural changes' in areas associated with movement, critical
thinking, reasoning, language and processing.
10.
A Thinking Cap.
Scientists who have worked on developing a 'thinking cap' hope the device will enhance
the mind's ability to learn.
The researchers from the University of British Colombia in Vancouver started to advance the
project after they discovered that the brain's ability to learn a new task was significantly
enhanced when a magnetic pulse was applied to the premotor cortex, the area of the brain
just behind the forehead.
Well, that's the 10 effective ways to boost your intelligence.
Anyway, The technique could be used not only to boost intellectual capacity but also to
aid those with debilitating learning difficulties.
