When it comes to what you bite, chew and swallow, your choices have a direct and long-lasting effect on the most powerful organ in your body: your brain. So which foods cause you to feel so tired after lunch? Or so restless at night? Mia Nacamulli takes you into the brain to find out.
Lesson by Mia Nacamulli, animation by Private Island.
*Brain at night:* _uses 20% of my energy_
*Brain during an exam:* three take it or leave it
There is three actually
Unless the exam is on a favorite hobby of yours...
Maybe exams should be at night lol

When I was a teenager and in my early 20’s I used to eat fast food, processed foods (chips, candy, ramen noodles), and sugary drinks. I used to feel awful mentally, physically, and emotionally. After I got pregnant I decided I wanted to change my diet to more healthier foods to help the developing baby. I found that eating right and exercising I felt better and really helped my body adjust to my new life as a mother, plus the baby was so healthy. We still continue to eat healthy to this day
Thanks for sharing. You and your family are doing each other a big favor living like this, and maybe even your close proximity benefits from this type of living consequently.
Take care.
i have allergies eyes and oily skin my whole life.. after quitting sugary drinks for ONLY two weeks they're all gone now! but i cant stop thinking about them sweet frappuccino , its driving me insane and moody all the time..i walking around like an addict i feel like an addict!
Bless you keep the healthy routine for the rest of your life
Bruh i thought you were a boy but when you said i got pregnant was so confused 😂
There is still whole wheat, brown ramen noodles (a healthier option)
Having healthy eating habits can completely change the way your brain works. This is a critical topic, and I think this should be considered in the school program.
Thanks for sharing awareness.
The food pyramid was taught in my school.
Also in the cafeteria!!!
@@MrBrown-yw4oe it was taught for like 11 minutes to me in gym class in 4th grade😹
I hope scientist can quickly make meat and sugary food have the benefits of the healthier food while still retaining their delicious taste
@@heroshinx693 The key is finding the foods and flavours you enjoy! You don't need to live a life of leafy greens and quinoa while restricting all sugar and carbs. Find a variety of foods (both sweet and savory) and find a balance that works for you. I struggled for years, despising any healthy people cuz it always was abrasive and felt forced. But once you start listening to what foods your body does and doesn't like, what works for you and become more aware of what you're eating (you don't need to calorie count or do anything other than be more involved and present of what you tend to eat) it goes from forcing healthy eating to eating simply for the nutrition your body needs. I recommend you check out intuitive eating because while I am the "healthy person of my group" I eat just as much "bad things" as those I know, but the difference is that I started eating for myself and to really benefit me, it's made a world of difference with eating. I'm able to enjoy the kale salads and quinoa for the nutrition it gives me, but I also enjoy a refreshing sprite and some occasional M&Ms. Find YOUR balance and I say that's all we need. After all, we were made from and evolved from the non processed foods so while I still enjoy my walmart and Mcydonald's runs, It's always nice to come back to a balanced meal to further fuel myself for the days ahead.
Most of this comes not from a "you should stop focusing on processed foods and attempt to replace it with non processed foods" but more of a once I started eating more intuitively and listening to what my body wants and not labeling foods as "good" or "bad" and I started to learn why eating right is important and how foods affect my body, it really made not only overall life more easy and enjoyable but it brought more overall wellbeing to food itself.

Albino Cake “the brain named itself”
The brain also tries to solve how it works through humans.
There is a conflict of interest.. Brain endorsing itself...
We shouldn't believe on this...😂
My wife would disagree 👍
The brain is pretty arrogant
This video is so important ! I feel like we're mostly taught to not eat some food to not gain weight but it's so much more than that
Yes, and what i know more from this video is we need to eat stuff which is helpful for our brain.
It’s good to remember long term not eating enough may have negative consequences for our brains. Remember to eat! ❤️
I do the nos the ted talk 😳
I Shall remember to eat.
Actually, fasting is extremely good for you. Watch Dr Jason Fung on here. He is a wizard.

That is complete bs programming. We have literally trillions of cells that started from one single parent cell and never needed any kind of outside source to grow.
The only reason a cell dies is because poisonous introduced to it .
Anything that is put in the mouth is treated as a toxin by the body it doesn’t matter what it is water fruit it doesn’t matter your body treated as a Tocsin. As soon as you put something in your mouth, your body produces mucus to try to expel it from your body.
You were on a program
A slavery consumerist program
You are under mind control
You will consume until the day you die
Or you can break free from your programming and groupthink detach from all these pleasures that are killing, you heal and actually live as a free person
Stuff like this should be taught in school. Much of what kids are taught needs to be re thought for the times we live in.
Well, I'm a teacher and I just showed this to my class as a discussion starter.
yay, teachers who care about stuff
well, think of it. had the kids been taught the " good/right stuff, the junk food industry would collapse as well as and many other, too.
It's not enough to simply educate but to demonstrate the practically of such information. Children may know that this food is good and that food is bad. Like, "everyone knows a carrot is good for you, and that Doritos are bad," but since me and my friends eat the bad stuff all the time, it's okay, right? Well, no, it isn't. But children won't understand the application of the information. We might need to educate adults / parents on this. Even then, it's worthless if they don't follow up on it. What good is knowledge if we don't use it?
As a student, I agree
no wonder I've got so calm since I've started eating healthier
Plz can you share wat u take coz i rlly need it

@@_.waryaa4078 what you mean "what I take"?
I love this, it's so true. Many people don't realize how much processed, sugar filled foods, etc, have such a bad effect on our brains, and how healthy foods full of phytonutrients have such a positive effect! This is an amazing video
I eat all the fast foods, junk food, fries, coca cola, pepsi, 4-5 energy drinks a day, 2 packs of cigarettes per day, 8-9 cofees with alot of sugar per day, alot of chokolate, alot of cookies, alot of chips, candies....and I started to have problems with my heart, I feel with no powers, I sleep all day long, I don't see the sun light, sometimes I wake up late in the night after I sleep all day....It's because of the drink and food I eat? HELP
@ONLY Romanian: Everything you’re eating explains it all. The video tells you a lot, but if you need extra help, exercising by doing stretches, lightweight lifting, or just some light cardio like 20 to 30 minutes of walking are all highly beneficial. Also seeing a professional dietitian and possibly a physical therapist can help a lot too. But to do these things you have to try. Because unfortunately help can’t simply come to you. You have to get it yourself-no offense whatsoever. Best wishes and lots of hope to you. 🤗✌️
@@Kaytran97 I practiced kickboxing 6 years and feeling great in this period, unfortunately in the last 3 years I didn't go to trainings and eat and drink all of this, I will start training and try to eat right, this is the only way to put myself in good shape again.THANK YOU
I just hope human can evolve so we can whatever we want without thinking of whether it healthy and can choose not to do exercise or maybe technology can help
@@heroshinx693 Well, it would be impossible. If you want to be healthy, there needs to be some effort put into it. It might be hard financially, but it’s still a thing that should be considered when trying to be healthy.
Very interesting! I've found that, since my concussion last year, if I eat sugar, dairy or something junky, I'm basically useless the rest of the day. Most people don't think about how the food they eat directly affects their body
Wow, i had my concussion 3 years ago and ever since my brain and body crash if I eat those (not sure about dairy).
I used to be like that, its cause they dont know what the other side is rly like. I didnt realize how much the junk food I ate rly messed with me until I slowly started eating healthy. I gotta say, I jus wish I started earlier.
Then youre probably lactose intolerant, dairy is quite healthy for lactose tolerant people
I'm tryin' to quit junk food but it's almost impossible, if I don't take my daily sugar dosis I feel like I want to die. Completely numb the entire day, I'm more agressive, antipathic, anxious and like semi-depressed,
@@MarkBlackRain I wouldn't recommend straight up quitting some of the sweets, that'll jus lead to a harder relapse and to a worsen state (based of my experience). I'd suggest goin bout it in a slow process. for example, if u eat 5 chocolate bars a day, try 4 for couple days and if it seems like 4 do able, cut another one out, if not eat 4 couple more days. Rinse and repeat this cycle. I can't say it's gonna work for u but, I'm just basing this of my experience .
Fast Food:
You eat fast.
You grow fast.
You die fast.

I'm not a failure I'm berger
See, if I was taught the reasoning behind why I need to eat healthy as a kid, rather than just being told "cause its good for you" then I probably wouldn't have such an awful, sugary processed food diet. I wish things like this would be explained to kids because I've found that when understanding the "why" to something, its much easier to do/practice. And some people may think this is too complicated for kids to understand, but you would be surprised at how intelligent even kindergarteners can be when info is presented in an interesting and/or fun way.
That's so many topics, but especially medical things. That being said, people discard all sorts of good information all the time.
I completely agree with this 💯 I used to ask WHY about Everything as a kid, & I hated not getting answers. Educate these kids!🙏

I'm 27 and this video opened my eyes. It's crazy they don't teach this in public schools.
I actually just came here from my Health class linking the video to this week's lesson, so I guess they are now(at least here in Georgia USA).
I watched this video at least 3 times over. It´s so well done. I love the graphics, and the narration. Thanks for this lesson!
Somehow I learn more watching TED's vids rather than learning in school..
then again, school is a place that tells you to remember all the word's definition, all Princess/Prince/President's birth and death date,and don't actually give you a valid life choice before college, so......
Well then it makes sense about a previously believed to be weird story happened in one of the red light destrict buildings in Frankfurt - Hauptbahnhof or Eben Strasse there was lots of PUF's in one of them I heard a story which sounded weird: There was a guy or actually more guys that turned up off and on to visit he working ladies but these guys wanted nothing else only semen asked the ladies to collect them semen and they will pay 300 Euros for semen. They drink it. No sex nothing. I found this rather weird of story but now it makes me think.... heavy
Oh, tell me what exactly did you learn from this video about how neurotransmitters work or what they are made of, or how a cell membrane is built. You learned absolutely no details about any of those things, you just recieved some general knowledge. Which is still great, but not enough to have the complex knowledge that studying medicine for example requires. And you are provided with that knowledge in school. Even if it's a lot more boring than some animations on a 5 min video.
Gizzy Apple
Most of what we learn at school is useless and probably will forget it the next year
aya But as the years go on you are gradually learning to learn more and more independently. That's what's valuable, not the content. "Teach a man to fish" and all that.

I used to think that I had Seasonal Affective Disorder (S.A.D.), a problem that makes you feel depressed when the weather's no good, but then I cut sugar out of my diet (aside from whole fruits) and I realized I do not have S.A.D. Essentially, sugar was negatively affecting my mood... now, I'm pretty much happy all the time, even on gloomy days!
Shawn Treelife wow, thanks for sharing!!! I think this is the case for me too, but when you’re feeling sad it’s hard not to reach for comfort foods that provide a moment of pleasure

th-cam.com/video/K3SDtX_UZoQ/w-d-xo.html hi...
Cutting out processed foods and processed sugar, enabled me to remove six prescription drugs I was supposed to be on for life. I was taking 120 pain pills a month, depression meds., steroid creams for skin rashes and three additional drugs. (I also lost 40 pounds and have kept it off for eight years) Most of us treat our bodies like a city waste facility until our health is taken from us. This is exactly what happened to me. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia/chronic fatigue syndrome. And given no hope from the medical Doctors. Now is the time to take care of yourself, before you end up in dire straits as I did.
Hi Brian, that's great to hear mate. Would you mind sharing the diet that appears to be working for you so far? What changes did you make to switch away from fast foods? I think a lot of people have the bad diets they do out of convenience, so I'm curious how you implemented yours. Thanks.

i find that the more bad food I eat, I just become slower overall. So just eat better and you'll think more clearer lol it's that simple
you're body is a machine feed it right and you will feel right :)
anythingnew Overeating what? That's too vague of a statement. Overeating mixed veggies and salmon will not have the same effects of overeating little Caesar's pizza and breadsticks.
I indulge myself with a bowl of instant ramen noodle yesterday (340 kcal), knowing it's mostly junk. It tasted synthetically "tasty", but then I spent the rest of the day drinking water trying to flush its taste and effect from my body.
I should've known better, really, but healthy diet journey isn't always a straight line, I suppose.
Dave Fischer Thanks I have been not focusing I can’t even remember things from what I learn in school not even 5 seconds after a lesson.
Neo X best comment
Eating a really colourful & health-conscious plant-based lunch while watching this I love these videos, & believe this sort of info is important to share. Thanks, Ted-Ed
I love this video. This is so true. When I was a teenager, I used to eat unhealthy, like not eating enough veggies and protein and ate sugary things every day. In turn, I felt terrible physically, mentally, and emotionally.
As I grow, I gradually become aware of how our daily diet affects us significantly. I now know how to eat healthy and maintain a nutritious diet, making me feel great every day and changing the way my brain works entirely.
It's like my brain is trying to understand what another brain is teaching my brain what it does and why it does

My brain likes the way your 🧠 thinks.
i am now in a crisis of "what the heck do i have for breakfast?"
Clara Talantseva oats
My current favorite breakfast is a cup of water-cooked oatmeal with cinnamon and a little vanilla, a cooked egg, and a few almonds, berries, or misc. fresh fruit/veg either on the side or mixed in with the oatmeal. The whole thing takes maybe fifteen minutes, usually is fewer than 250 kilocalories, and keeps me going for a good couple hours! Different spices and fruits/nuts/vegetables also help keep me from getting too bored with the meal.

Nuts and fish
Calm, easily absorbed. Great content. The superfood of mental digestion.
The illustration of this video is vivid, it helps me to understand what you want to express.
This is very true. When I eat good my depression seems to disappear but I stop eating greens and start eating junk food my depression comes back. It's amazing how food affects us and it's also amazing how oblivious we are to the truth. You literally are what you eat.

I have this thing that I like to call "Sugar Depression", which is exactly as it sounds.
Sometimes, because of sugar I go in to a small (Sometimes not so small) Depression.
and usually the only way to solve it, is to avoid sugar for a while, do some physical activity and try to ingore it and acknowledge its because of sugar.
A sugar high, then low and a stupor. It is a very powerful drug
Me too, I eat a lot of sugar and smoke 2 packs of cigaretes per day, and i eat fast foods too
This topic is so important I think this is the staff they have to teach at schools. No wonder that I became more energetic since my healthy diet. Children eat so much junk nowadays I am afraid for their future(btw not only children). This has to be taught from very young age for people to think and grow healthy.
I love the animations on TED-Ed!
Same! And the narrator too
i know they are everything
That's one of the reasons i subscribed so much easier to understand
You can try Asapscience too! Their animation is even better :)
Катерина Петрова no it isn't. Lol
About 2.5 years ago I saw this video for the first time, it really made me think about what I ate and since I’ve eaten with much more awareness, mostly plant based whole foods packed with nutrients, thanks!

Do they allow sack lunches anymore? They should... Yeah, I'm pretty sure most school lunches are NOT what someone should be eating for optimum health...
That's not even that unhealthy. People lack knowledge of healthy food, too.
Tendies are good
Chicken is actually a good alternative to red meat, and healthier.
As long as its not marinated and deep fried in oil..
This was one of the best animated videos

This needs to be taught more, especially to those suffering with mental illness. I’m not a doctor, but from personal experience the ones I have seen suffer with mental illness have a poor diet and unhealthy lifestyle. Makes a huge difference. Not saying it will cure (although many times it will) and there is always a time and place for medication, but natural remedies and lifestyle changes should be pushed before harsh medication with a list of side effects
Content, Awesome, no doubt. But Animation has taken the video to the next level, I know how much effort goes in to each frame, well done guys!
I really love the animation. It helps me to imagine what is going on inside our brain, like how the foods affect our brain.

Well said friend. Buddhism holds a concept that we 'inter-are' to put it simply. What was once vague 'spiritual' views are being made physical so as to bring understanding to the layman. Even the bible exhorts us to eat to edify the other in the new testament (Paul, on forbidden foods). Stay blessed.

You don't have to cut that kind of stuff out entirely from a healthy diet.
it is the sugar if i eat a donut now i get very happy and full of energy, then come the crash, plus i will get fat again , worked to hard to fix the mess i made of myself
+steve o Blueberries slow the absorption of sugar into the blood, thus preventing a high blood sugar and subsequent crash.

How the food you eat affects your brain - Mia Nacamulli
Most of the weight of a dehydrated brain comes from Fats, Proteins, amino acids, micronutrients and glucose. The brain is more than just that.
But each component distinct impact on functioning, developing, development, mood and energy.
Fats: omega 3 and 6 (fatty acids) brain conditions: nuts, seeds and fatty fishes is curtail to the creation and maintenance of cell membrane. While omegas are good for your brain, long term consumption of other fats like trans and saturated fats may compromise brain health. Protein and amino acids are manipulated how we feel and behave. Amino acids contain the precursors to the neurotransmitters, the chemical messengers that carry signals between neurons affecting things like mood, sleep, attentiveness and weight. We feel calm after eating large plate of pasta, or more alert after protein rich meal. Complex combinations of compounds in foods can stimulate brain cells to release mood altering norepinephrine, dopamine and serotonin. But getting to your brain cells is tricky and amino acids have to compete for limited access. A diet with a range of foods helps maintain a balanced combination of brain messengers and keeps your mood getting squid in one direction or the other. Like the other organ in our bodies, our brain is also benefit of a steady supply of micronutrients. Antioxidants in fruits and vegetables. Strengthen the brain to fight off free radicals that destroy brain cells. Enabling your brain to work well for a longer time. And without powerful micronutrients like the vitamin b6,12 and folic acids. Our brain will be susceptible to brain disease and mental decline. Trace amounts of minerals, iron, zink, cupper and sodium are also fundamental for brain health and early cognitive development. In order for the brain to efficiently transform and synthesize valuable nutrients it means fuel and lots of it. While the humans brain makes up to 2% of our body weight, it uses up to 20% of our energy resources. Most of this energy comes from carbohydrates that our body digest into glucose or blood sugar. The frontal lobes are so sensitive to drops in glucose in fact, that a change in mental function is one of the primery signals. Of nutrient deficiency. Assuming we are getting glucose regularly, how does the specific type of carbohydrates we eat affect our brains? Carbs come in three forms, starch, sugar and fibers. While on most nutration labels they are all lumped into one total carb count the ratio of the sugar and fiber subgroups to the whole amount affect how the body and brain respond. A high glycemic food, like white bread causes a rapid release of glucose in the brain. And then comes the dip. Blood sugar shoots down, and with it, out attention span and the mood. On the other hands, oats, grains and legumes have slower glucose release. Enabling a stedier level of attentiveness. For sustained brain power opting for a varied diet of nutrient-rich foods is critical. When It comes to what you bite, chew or swallow. Your choices have a direct and long -lasting effect on the most powerful organ in your body.

🔥🔥5 REASONS YOU MUST EAT REAL FOOD!!DONT MISS!!🔥🔥th-cam.com/video/oU_BFhU2aes/w-d-xo.html
Got the joke so no worries, just wanted to add my own 2 cents to your comment
At some point, to a certain extent, we have to be self-proclaimed and entitled and egoistic, otherwise we wouldn’t be any different from wild beasts
That’s how humans stood out from the rest of the animal kingdom and got on top the food chain in the first place
0:38 Proteins: *OPPA GANGNAM STYLE!*

I had a "Sindhri" mango tree in my last home.
IT WAS HEAVEN!
We developed a ritual of throwing an annual family mango party, where we ate nothing but mangoes till we could eat no more xD
Gave mangoes to friends etc
And still had enough left to eat multiple everyday. Feeling bored? Open the fridge.
No mango like sindhri mango
#ctfu
Thanks I had a day ago a really big headache. It was very painful , now I know what too eat.
This video has (quite literally) changed my life.
I mean that without the slightest fear of exaggeration …
2:44 I love that pear so much XD that's my spirit animal
I don't think that's an animal XD
Kinza Anwar Obviously it’s not. Spirit animal is more of an expression it’s not a term to be taken literally.

@@rainbowcake4771 God, you don't have to say it twice. And, have you heard of humor?
@@kinzaanwar lol I've done this too accidentally...you hit 'enter' too fast or hard..yeah.

No matter how many times I see it, It inspires me more and more.

Everyone look at the purple character dancing at @0:36.
He's doing the gangnam style ....
omg you're right!
haha nice ego sight :>
Haha too funny!
oh no
One should have been dabbing and the other hitting a whip.
It is really interesting how the food actually works in our body. All the responses about how we are feeling most of this feeling, came from the food that we eat. The quality of life doesn’t just include a financial status but also a health diet.
the animation is to the point!!!!
What an excellent explainer, good for teens too
Love the animation style this episode. It's crazy!
2:34 I want this 🍐 pear toy it's so cute.
This was amazingly informative.
Truth! Foods really affect every part of your body, mind and soul
I’d love to see a list of foods or diet that goes along with this information. So that we can try and maintain that balanced diet.
They mentioned several foods and you need to eat a variety so it's not super helpful to list a few.
Truth is everyone is different. You can study some of the different diets and then try them to see which works for you. You can make small changes at first so it’s doable and not overwhelming.
if you search "food pyramid of mediterranean diet" you can easily find out what kind of diet is the most complete and healthy ;)!
I personally think a diet isn’t the best way to go about it. I try to eat as much homemade food as possible so I know what’s going into my body. If you do, it helps to research into the nutritional contents of the base ingredients (and oils especially). Recently more than anything I’ve just been trying to eat less sugar and more vegetables though
One of the best Ted-ed video animations so far; an abundance of details adds more life to the words for visual learners. An example is at 2:22, the two figures walking actually have footsteps softly in the background. I have a lot of respect when it comes to good detail;👌 so good.
Got me engaged. Very useful and entertaining at the same time. Will definitely take advantage of the info. 👍🙃
What a necessary video, pure content!
Awww how refreshing. A nutritional video on TH-cam where I agree with everything said. Thanks teded. Awesome as always
Thank you. This just opened a new field in my mind. The field of food-brain relationship.
So my brown dad giving me almonds every day so it ‘strengthens my brain’ was correct all along?!
Absolutely. Bonus: almonds are a pretty decent source of magnesium.
Such an important video to watch, especially with an ageing population!
I am a male I am 65" tall and weigh about 125 lbs. I work at wal-mart and witness eating atrocities on a daily basis. For lunch every night I will start with a salad, then eat my main course usually consisting of something high in protein ie. salmon or carbs ie. pasta then finish with a dessert of some type of fruit ie. pineapple, mango, or cherries and flush it down with water.
I have never seen a single person eat a decent nutritious meal at work. A typical meal for everyone else consists of a bag of chips, a 20 oz bottle of soda (usually not their first one nor last for the night), and some type of frozen meal ie. bagel bites or chicken fingers!
Do these people not care or are they just ignorant of what real food is?
Great Video BTW!
+16patie pretty sure he meant 65 inches tall
65" is 5 foot 5 inches
The majority is just ignorant of what real food is. People have been wrongly informed their entire lifes. And if they do know that junk food is not healthy, they do not realise how UNhealthy it is. You eat something unhealthy, but don't feel ill or sick rightaway. You do not notice any adverse results the next day either. So people think 'no harm done'. That their arteries are clogging up and they cannot fight off cancerous cells as well, is not seen. It might take their body 20 to 30 years before the serious damage is seen. And the worst thing is: people pass this on to their kids as well. How to cook and eat healthy should be a mandatory subject in schools for a long enough time. Instead they buy their soda's and chocolate bars in the school's hallway. That should be illegal.
I'm pretty sure people don't really care and just whatever to get the day going, most of the time
16patie he would die
my friend once just randomly said "the brain named itself" *deep*
IDK man he probably stole that from the internet
woah
I think it would be better to say that we named ourself
