Poor cognitive development in the room full of people!!!!

The more carbon dioxide there is in a room, the worse your decisions might be! This is the result of a new study according to which our decision-making skills are greatly affected in closed rooms. 
Room full of Carbon dioxide

The team from the State University of New York examined whether high CO2 exposure at school or at work could have a negative impact on our cognitive skills. 

The tests showed that the subjects' decision-making had already worsened at 1.000 ppm, compared to subjects in a room with 600 ppm CO2. (Typical outdoor concentration = ca. 380 ppm, indoors ca. 1.000, packed rooms = up to several thousand ppm.) Results were particularly impacted at 2,500 ppm.

It's Never Too Early To Read Or Talk To Your Baby!!

So getting ready to have a baby. It must be a most exciting and joyous experience that will forever change your life for the better, people like me can't imagine without experiencing it. 

The purpose of this blog is to raise a question -   "what you do prior to the birth that can have significant implications on the baby’s life? 

Cognitive development is not only possible, but it is crucial as a fetus. So what can you do to enhance their overall brain development?

While some may view talking to the baby prior to the birth as foolish, it can have outstanding affects on the baby. The question many have is when can the fetus begin to hear sounds and how should the mother and father talk to the incoming baby.

Fetuses actually hear sounds quite similar to the way we hear a next-door stereo. The key thing to remember is that they are capable of hearing voices that are filtered through tissues, bones and fluid. By this they can recognize mother’s voice and be calmed by it.
