can we use 100% of our brain capacity?

Question

Can we use 100% of our brain? presently we can use only 5 to 7 % of our brain.

Answer 1

If someone can unfold the mysteries within the human brain, probably using its 100% capacity can be given way. Who knows?

Answer 2

We already use close to (if not) 100% of our brain capacity. We don't use it all at the same time, because there are no circumstances that would call for it.
For example, even if a small region of the brain is damaged, huge consequences ensue, whether it be memory impairment, blindness, deafness etc. If it was true that only such a small amount of the brain was used, we would be able to remove approximately 90% of it and have no adverse side-effects.

Answer 3

It is impossible to use 100% of our brain capacity. So called Scientist they try to use maximum 7 % of their brain capacity and they are 0% when their house hold matters are concern. VRVRAO

Answer 4

No. We are not ready for that yet. Can you imagine how (future) wars would look like if all the scientists would use 100% of their brain for weaponry and destructive purposes?!?

Whoever created us put time coded signals in our DNA strands...... At the right spiritual development (in time) when we humans are responsible enough for our actions, then the rest of the DNA will be activated - maybe in stages.... I don't think all at once. That we could not handle.

You see - we humans are pre-dispositioned already. The intellectual tools are all there - but are not accessible, are denied use under the present state of human development. We have to learn how to behave civilized first, get rid of greed and selfishness etc. You don't give a little kid matches to play with in a hay barn...... We are at that stage at the present.

Answer 5

Offcourse one can use his 100 % of brain capacity but for that you have to make yourself capable of handling your brain. By the way if we keep the old tales aside i dont think tht in the history of world anybody had ever used even a qauter of his brain capacity.

Answer 6

No i dont think so. I have read that Einstein uses 13% of his brain. With only 13% he has been able to give rise to the theory of relativity with his famous formula E=mc2.

So i think if it was possible man would have already found a cure for aids, solve global warming problem, eliminate pollution and colonise mars. I think that a normal human being can acheive up to 9% but not reached 10%.

Answer 7

Function and interpretation of how it works or anything about brain is beyond the understanding of medical doctors and bio-scientists . Your question can not be answered today convincingly .
One thing is sure. you are utilising it 100% still you can not cope with demanding situations today .
Brain consumes maximum O2 not only using its 5% capacity or nature is not nurturing an idle portion of brain like tumor . you may rectify your viewpoint.

Answer 8

Well, we can already disprove religion with about 2%. So I'd say everything. @ Asker ummm, the average human uses about 50% of their brain. You're using exaggerated facts of a single example. Why not try reading the whole wikipedia page rather than the parts you see the biggest number.

Answer 9

I believe that figure is because we use 5 to 7% for conscious thought and memory, the rest is used to regulate bodily functions both conscious and unconscious.

The part of the brain used for those functions could not be used for memory though because if you replaced the brains signal for the heart to beat with a memory of your grandmother...well, you can see where that would lead.

Answer 10

yes we are using 100% of our brain. even the d*mbest person does! are you saying that 97% of our brain is just jello inside our skull.... try taking out 97% of the mass of the brain and it would not function as you would like to...

its just they (some people) dont have this socalled neuro linkages ekek as much as other people do. that why they dont think and rationalize or even have the memory of people like us
