Social networks are now a part of our lives, however recent studies show a less pleasant truth: 95% of the world population who use social networks are addicted to them and they neglect the side effects they can have on the human brain.
Did you ever thought that, every time you use short messages you post on Twitter or on Facebook, you creativity is repressed and it suffers ?
Maybe you don’t think anything is wrong with the fact that you got used to write short sentences with few words about things you used to express in long phrases, however scientists warn that a bad effect on the human brain is the reduction of the attention level and focus.
A recent study confirms the fact that the average duration of moment in which you read something new on social networking sites is 5 seconds and ten years ago we needed 12 minutes to do the same thing.
Furthermore, the stress felt by the human brain increases, and a consequence of social networking abuse is the decrease in memory power.
