One of your body’s largest organs, your brain is three pounds (1.3kg) of fat and proteins condensed in a mass with a tofu-like texture. Its contents come in two colors…
Gray matter: Your brain contains about 100 billion nerve cells. Called neurons, they make up your brain’s ‘’gray matter’’
White matter: Your neurons communicate with one another by sending electrical signals and forming chemical connections in a network of nerve fibers called dendrites and axons, which form your brain’s white matter. This communication between neurons is what’s responsible for your every thought, memory, movement, and automatic bodily function.
