Neurogenesis - new formation of nerve cells & natural support
Neurogenesis refers to the process of the formation of new nerve cells (neurones) in the brain.
Things worth knowing about "Neurogenesis"
Neurogenesis refers to the process of the formation of new nerve cells (neurones) in the brain.
Neurogenesis refers to the process of new nerve cells (neurones) being formed in the brain. For a long time, it was assumed that the brain could no longer form new nerve cells after birth. However, it is now known that new nerve cells can be formed throughout life, particularly in the hippocampus - a region of the brain that is important for learning, memory and emotions. This process is crucial for cognitive functions, emotional resilience and the brain's ability to adapt to new challenges.
Neurogenesis is influenced by various factors. Physical activity, mental stimulation, a balanced diet and sufficient sleep promote the formation of new nerve cells. At the same time, chronic stress, inflammation, oxidative stress and an unhealthy lifestyle can inhibit neurogenesis and contribute to cognitive decline.
Certain nutrients and bioactive substances also play a key role in supporting neurogenesis. Spermidine, a natural polyamine found in foods such as wheat germ, mushrooms and soya beans, shows promising effects on brain health. Spermidine activates the process of autophagy, a cellular cleansing function that breaks down and recycles damaged cellular components. This optimises the environment in the brain, which in turn can promote neurogenesis. In addition, there is evidence that spermidine has anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties that contribute to the preservation of cognitive functions.
In addition to spermidine, omega-3 fatty acids, B vitamins (especially B6, B9 and B12), polyphenols such as resveratrol and antioxidants such as vitamin C & E are important promoters of neurogenesis. They contribute to the reduction of inflammation and oxidative stress and promote the formation of new synapses, which improves neuronal plasticity and memory performance. The promotion of neurogenesis plays a central role in the long-term health of the brain.
Regular exercise, a nutrient-rich diet with neuroprotective substances such as spermidine, mental challenge and stress management can support the formation of new nerve cells. This not only helps to improve mental performance, but can also prevent neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's or Parkinson's.
