Wissenswertes über "Brain cells"
Brain cells, also known as neurons and glial cells, are the basic units of the human brain and are central to all cognitive, sensory and motor functions.
The brain consists of around 100 billion neurons that communicate with each other via specialised contact points known as synapses. These highly complex networks enable us to process information, store memories and control movements. In addition to neurons, glial cells such as astrocytes, microglia and oligodendrocytes play a supporting role by providing nutrients, removing harmful substances and improving neuron signalling.
The health of brain cells is crucial for mental performance and general well-being. However, factors such as oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, environmental toxins and ageing processes can impair the function and lifespan of brain cells. This can lead to neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's or other forms of dementia.
A key challenge in neuroscience is to find ways to maintain the health and functionality of brain cells in the long term. One promising approach is to support brain cells through targeted nutrition and bioactive substances. Spermidine, a naturally occurring polyamine, has proven to be particularly valuable in research. Spermidine promotes autophagy, a cellular cleansing process that breaks down and recycles damaged cell components. This process is crucial for the regeneration of nerve cells and the maintenance of neuronal networks. Studies suggest that spermidine has neuroprotective properties and can help reduce age-related damage to brain cells. Spermidine-rich foods such as wheat germ, soya beans or food supplements could therefore have a protective effect on brain cells and contribute to the prevention of neurodegenerative diseases.
In addition to spermidine, there are other nutrients and substances that support the health of brain cells, including omega-3 fatty acids, B vitamins, vitamin E and phytochemicals such as resveratrol and quercetin. Exercise, cognitive activities and a healthy lifestyle complement these measures and help to protect brain cells and promote their function.
