“The brain is metabolically expensive. In humans, the brain consumes approximately 20% of our metabolic energy, despite comprising only 2% of our body mass, making it amongst the most energetically costly organs in the body” (Padamsey at al. 2023).

Thinking, working, and being creative require energy!
