Will i lose brain cells if i starve myself?

just wonderin cuz recently ive been really busy and i havent had time to eat. and i feel a bit dull..
Answer:
No. You would lose brain cells almost instantaneously if your deprive it of oxygen. Why don't you have any time to eat when there is a Mickey D's around every corner.
you lose energy for your brain cells to use.
you probably won't lose any but you will dehydrate them if you don't drink. You lose brain cells all the time regardless, and of course certain drugs do speed up the process. Malnutrition when young can cause serious detrimental effects on the brain but depending on your age you are probably ok, should get something to eat though.
nope just organ damage. and the dull feeling is due to the low energy and fat being burnt, and your probably running on either caffeine or adrenaline or both!
Duhh uhh nope. I don't eat and i m okey dokey, huh huh..dddd.
you feel dull cus your body needs food for energy and because your not getting any food your not getting any energy.theres always time to eat buy almonds and put them in a baggy then just stick a handful in your mouth when ur busy. that way you have a quick and easy energy boost where your more focused and not as dull.
One, be honest with yourself, everyone has time to eat something, so if you are starving you are choosing to.Now, from a former anorexia. Yes, you can destroy, not just lose brain cells the longer you starve and especially this is true if you are young and your mind, body is still growing and developing. Starvation is a lose, lose and more lose situation and I'm not talking losing weight. No one and I mean no one who has had anorexia would wish it upon anyone else. It starts out as a choice, usually to control emotions, feelings and feel in control. But like all addictions, soon you are traped in it's grip.Even once someone stops being anorexia through change they make on their own or with therapy, people don't mention that most anorexics end up with serious health problems that often begin in tehir late twenties and thirties. Former anorexics like myself and bulemics or both, end up with high rates of strokes, heart attacks. We usually end up with bone problems, nerve damage, arthritis and many end up with heart damage from prolonged starvation and or from loss of potassium due to vomiting. STOP, work through your problems if you have them, don't run form them or try to ignore them and Eat. Otherwise, losing some brain cells will be the least of your life issues and problems. Take care of yourself.
