Can playing brain challenging games increase your iq?
March 15, 2010 – 11:21 pmBy doing brain teasers puzzles etc daily could i increase my iq or my brain function? Thank you.
Yes it can. Actually, several things can help to retain or increase brain function: learning almost anything new; exercise, especially if you vary what you do; certain foods and spices; even such things as breathing through your nose instead of your mouth, doing things with your non-dominant hand, or varying the route of your daily walk.
Different games address different functions: memory, logic, problem-solving, language, hand-eye coordination, etc. Here are a few sites to get you started. There are many other sites and many products, but basically, the idea is to keep the brain working on new things so it doesn’t just rot (metaphorically speaking) complacently in the ruts of habit and routine.
