It all starts with the brain, just three pounds in weight,
Which controls all the systems we must regulate:
Our heartbeat, our breathing, fats and sugars we store
The thoughts that we have and of course so much more
The attention we pay, the decisions we take
Affect each connection the brain then has to make
It changes its shape - referred to as ‘plastic’ -
Which means that it bends and moulds like elastic
The diet we give it, from food to cognition,
Alters brain signals and synaptic transmission
Every habit we store or behaviour we change
Impacts the way neural structures arrange
By being more aware of how the brain functions
You’ll direct extra growth and increased neural junctions
So come on this journey, let us help you explore
This incredible organ at our very core
