You can't drive without your navigator? Be careful, this may affect your intelligence!

Xinhua news agency When driving, you are not inseparable from the navigator? Be careful, this may affect your intelligence! Spiers, a psychologist at University College London, suggests that driving by self memory is active in the olfactory cortex and back of the hippocampus, while the opposite is true for the navigator.

The hippocampus is primarily responsible for memory and learning, and the inner olfactory cortex is a stimulus to memory switches that often stimulate memory. Previous research has said that there is a "live map" of the London taxi driver brain hippocampus than the general people. Spiers said that the human body function "does not waste", too relies on the navigation instrument and so on electronic products can let the human memory degeneration.

So, when driving, unless you go to unfamiliar places, try not to use the Navigator, the same, less use calculators, more mental arithmetic. Although trouble, but in the long run, your brain will thank you.
