I know that brain consumes a large portion of the daily calorie intake. Is there a way to make brain consume even more calories by say playing some video games etc and there by losing body weight?

Question

Can we make brain to burn more calories to lose weight?

Answer 1

The brain burns about 300-400 calories a day. However, hard thinking might only add 5% to that. You won’t lose much weight by thinking harder.
