It really all depends on what the brain damage was. Someone might have had a stroke, a traumatic brain injury, a tumor, bleeding in the brain, or many different things.

UCLA professor of neurosurgery and physiological science Fernando Gomez-Pinilla, has spent years studying the affects that food, exercise and sleep have on the brain. Considering how we tend to feel after eating too much, sleeping too little or falling out of shape, Gomez-Pinilla's interest in this makes sense. He found that omega-3 fatty acids helped to improve memory, learning and protected against depression, mood disorders and even dementia. While you can find omega-3 in pill form, the scientists state that you will receive more benefits from actual food that contains this valuable nutrient. Some of these foods include flax seed, salmon, walnuts and squash. Omega-3 fatty acids help with the plasticity of your synapses - and considering the damage that is done to these vital parts of the brain by a TBI, this study may be worth paying attention to. We've already discussed how a brain injury often worsens with time and can lead to dementia, but with active preventative measures such as an improved diet and increased exercise, you may be able to help prevent or stall this deterioration. Gomex-Pinilla said that "The brain and the body are deficient in the machinery to make DHA; it has to come through our diet." The DHA is a type of omega-3 fatty acid, and is in foods such as salmon. An interesting addition to this is the suggestion that a lower calorie diet may also help with the brain's overall health. Too many calories can increase cell vulnerability to free radical damage and also decrease the flexibility of your synapses, leading to memory and learning problems. Another especially beneficial supplement is folic acid. It has been proven to help with the effects of antidepressants and to prevent the mental decline that comes with aging. If it helps with aging…perhaps it will benefit a damaged brain? Our lesson from this study seems to be smaller portions with higher nutrient values. Not always the easiest shift to make in our fast food oriented society, but one worth making if you value your mental health!

The shunt used for a person who has hydrocephalus ("water on the brain") is not called a "value shunt". It is usually called a "ventriculo-peritoneal shunt" or "VP shunt" for short. Sometimes a "ventriculo-atrial shunt" or "VA shunt" is used instead.

At the midpoint it is the sagitall suture.

There is something called the Homunculus that illustrates which parts of the motor cortex control which region. It ends up looking like a C with the leg being the smallest part and the face especially the tongue being the largest.

I think the answer you're looking for is nerves. Nerves are the types of cells that transmit signals from your body to your brain, and brain to your body. Nerve cells release charged molecules in a controlled way to create electrical signals that can propagate information across the body.

1. Signs of dehydration are noticed before brain dehydration signs. If the symptoms of dehydration are noticed before the brain suffers from dehydration, you will not experience detrimental effects on the brain. Common dehydration symptoms include a dry or sticky mouth, little or no urine released, no tears being produced, eyes sunken in their sockets, lethargy and, in severe cases of dehydration, coma. One physical sign of dehydration can indicate that dehydration is beginning to affect the brain: you will exhibit a soft spot on the top of your head, like an infant has. This condition is known as sunken fontanels.
2. Mental EffectsUntreated
3. When dehydration affects the brain, mental ability will be affected immensely. Besides the symptom of physical lethargy, you will also have mental fatigue. As the brain dehydration continues, you will begin to have some memory problems and experience confusion.
4. When left untreated, brain dehydration can have serious effects. Due to the deterioration of brain cells from lack of water, brain dehydration can lead to seizures and permanent brain damage, which can impair your physical and mental abilities.

Sugar is C6H12O6 which is Glucose, glucose is needed for energy through out the day, without sugar u will have no energy. but becareful what u eat because to much sugar is bad for you. Hope i helped

It depends on the area of the brain affected -- here's a link to a good website that gives you specific problems caused by damage to specific parts of the brain.

If a man has a brain damaged in an accident , he could well be in a coma or even end up as a vegetable.

MY BRAIN DAMAGE CAUSES ME TO SHAKE UNCONTROLABLY MY ENTIRE BODY I AM SLOW AT TALKING AND STUFF LIKE THAT BUT I AM VERY SMART IT JUST TAKES ME LONGER TO SAY IT

it can be like a computer virus: works fine one minute, then a virus comes in and there can be any type of problem that the virus comes with

The part of the nervous system that enables us to experience the sensation of hot or cold, pain or pressure is the hypothalamus, located in the brain. The hypothalamus sends messages to the rest of the body. As an example, when you begin to shiver from cold, the hypothalamus sends a message to muscles to begin to work quicker, generating heat.

The cerebellum (infratentorial or back of brain) is located at the back of the head. Its function is to coordinate voluntary muscle movements and to maintain posture, balance, and equilibrium.

The gyri is a large octopus tentacle that sneezes when the lollipops are attached to the opposite side of the triangular surface of a pancake and the sulci is a turkey times the number of y chromosomes in a head of lettuce.

The general rule of thumb is that smaller animals have faster heart rates, and the average heart rate of a healthy man is lower than that of a healthy woman. However, health is a BIG factor here.

Our brain works to create: A. our mind. B. our sense of movement. C. our psychological makeup. D. our reality.

Often times they are really shy and tend to seclude themselves away from others. This is not always the case though...Left-brained people just think more with words vs. pictures that right-brained people use.

an injury to the medulla can kill a person because the medulla is responsible for all involuntary action such as respiration, regulated blood pressure and temperature. with the medulla injured u can fine these task very difficult to perform.
