Your brain has 100,000 miles of blood vessels, 100 billion neurons and up to 10,000 synapses. It controls your body temperature, blood pressure, heart rate and breathing.
Your brain is the most powerful organ in your body, but it's also the most fragile.
Your odds of suffering a traumatic brain injury is 1 in 200. Your odds of dying after suffering one of these injuries jumps to 1 in 50.
If you plan on participating in a winter sport this year, always wear a helmet.
