The supercomputer in your head

Recently, scientists discovered that the capacity (computing power) of our brain is many times greater than previously thought. This might seem like just an interesting fact, but neuroscientists were genuinely astounded by the implications. The discovery provided an immediate answer to a long-standing question: How can our brain be so incredibly energy-efficient?

Our Brain is a Quantum Computer

The answer lies in quantum mechanics. For a long time, it was believed that our brains operate solely through biochemical and electrical processes. Now, however, there is evidence suggesting that our brain functions on the principles of quantum mechanics. This could explain its remarkable power. New research shows that our brain may have up to ten times more memory capacity than previously estimated.

The physics behind quantum processes is so complex that much of it remains unknown. For example, the precise function of synapses is still a mystery. On the other hand, we do have significant knowledge about fundamental processes. Memories and thoughts, for instance, are created by electrical and chemical patterns in the brain.

The computing power of our brain is astounding. Recent insights suggest that its capacity is roughly equivalent to the entire Internet (about 1 petabyte), while using only the energy of a low-watt light bulb.

The Command Center of Our Body

The brain is the command center of the quantum system that makes up our body. It regulates thousands of chemical reactions every second in each cell. These processes are not random but follow a tightly coordinated plan. All cells in the body, neurons, and networks of neurons in the brain are intricately interconnected. This allows the brain to operate with a level of complexity unmatched by any known biochemical system.

The Body is Quantum

It’s not just the brain that functions on the principles of quantum mechanics; the entire body can be considered a quantum system. All molecules, atoms, and subatomic particles from head to toe are connected and can influence each other due to a phenomenon called "quantum entanglement."

Quantum Entanglement

Much like the way enzymes work, we can link a well-known quantum mechanical phenomenon to the operation of our body. This phenomenon, known as quantum entanglement, involves two or more physical objects becoming linked in such a way that one cannot be fully described without referencing the other, even if the objects are far apart. Simply put, these particles become inseparable.

This inseparability means that particles can affect each other even when separated by vast distances. This connection enables them to exchange information extremely subtly and at incredibly high speeds.

Nootropics: Supplements for the Brain

Exploring the deeper mechanisms of our body is fascinating, but we should not overlook the more accessible levels. In the brain, for example, biochemical processes can be influenced relatively easily, particularly the neurotransmitters. A category of supplements that addresses this is known as nootropics.

By providing precursors to neurotransmitters or inhibiting certain enzymes, nootropics can modulate the levels of various neurotransmitters. Common targets include acetylcholine, serotonin, dopamine, and GABA.

Cleverly formulated nootropics, such as CILTEP from Natural Stacks, can help enhance mood, clear the mind, improve concentration, and support memory.
