Nada Turk, a mental health specialist, said: energy drain It means not having any energy to achieve goals, or living on a daily basis in a normal way, and avoiding draining energy by looking for other solutions means residing this disease.

Turk stressed, during a telephone interview with the media, Rana Arafa and Mamdouh Al-Shennawi, on the “Al-Bay and Al-Hanam” program, which is broadcast on the “Echo Al-Balad” channel, the need to work to solve the problem of energy depletion that occurs due to the absorption of energy by many people, without working. To stop this matter, commenting: “It must have goals, there must be no one entering my life.”
And the “mental health specialist” explained that allowing the depletion of energy by others means that the person is relinquishing the achievement of his ambitions and goals, noting that it is necessary to work on carrying out the tasks of the house, and taking care of the children without draining the energy, and this would benefit the children more.
On the other hand, the human brain consumes much more energy than other parts of the body, and the perplexing thing is that it remains consuming fuel even when neurons are not firing signals called neurotransmitters to each other, and now researchers in the Weill Cornell Medicine Laboratory have found that the process of encapsulating Neurotransmitters are responsible for draining that much energy.
In their study, published today (December 3, 2021) in Science Advances, the researchers identified small capsules called synaptic vesicles as a major source of energy expenditure in inactive neurons. Neurons use these vesicles as containers for their own neurotransmitter molecules, which they release From communication ports called “synaptic terminals” to signal other neurons.
The researchers explained that the packing of neurotransmitters into vesicles is a chemically energy-intensive process, and the researchers found that this process, in terms of energy, is inherently leaky — so leaky that it continues to expend significant energy even when the vesicles are full, and the “synaptic terminals” are inactive.
“These findings help us understand why the human brain is so vulnerable to an interruption, or impairment of its fuel supply,” said lead author of the study Dr. Timothy Ryan, professor of biochemistry at Weill Cornell Medicine.
He added, “The observation that the brain consumes a great deal of energy, even when it is at a relatively resting state, goes back several decades to studies of the brain’s fuel use in coma and vegetation states. The brain’s consumption of glucose is typically only half below normal – which still leaves the brain as a high energy consumer compared to other organs. The sources of energy depletion during rest are not fully understood.”
