Why we need brain detoxification?
Our brain is just a softmass of nervous tissues connected to the spinal cord. It controls approximately every action in our body.
Our ability to think, talk, feel, see, hear, remember thing and our every action is supervised by our brain.
A brain detox protects us from poor brain functions, neurodegenerative diseases and symptoms of brain malfunctioning such as:
- Anxiety and depression
- Memory loss
- Addictions
- Brain fog
- Fatigue
How to detox our brain?
