Brushing your teeth with your less dominant hand can have a huge impact on brain health, experts say, and may even banish brain fog for good.
Dr. Pang KwanKin, a chiropractic neurologist, revealed the simple health hack on TikTok and it quickly went viral.
According to the specialist, using the “other” hand to complete daily morning tasks is the easiest way to strengthen and straighten important pathways in the brain.
And it’s not just for brain fog, the trick will also help improve your brain’s ability to regulate itself.
Emotional regulation has a profound effect on our ability to think rationally and engage in learning and also on how we communicate with others.
“Do this if you have brain fog or brain dysregulation for 30 days. I promise you will see a change,” said Dr. KwanKin.
And people were quick to reveal the impact the change of hands had on them.
“I actually started doing this with my non-dominant hand and it really works,” one woman said.
Chiropractic neurologist Dr. Pang KwanKin says using your non-dominant hand is a game-changer for mental confusion and emotional regulation.
“Do this if you have brain fog or brain dysregulation for 30 days. I promise you will see a change,” said Dr. KwanKin.
“I agree with this 100 percent, it makes the brain cells wake up instead of being dormant,” another woman said.
However, one man who tried to brush his teeth this way complained that every time he did it he hurt his gums.
Dr. KwanKin also advises people who suffer from brain fog to try gargling every day.
“Gargling calms the area of the brain that senses stress,” the doctor said.
Dr. KwanKin recommended vibrating the soles of your feet and standing on one leg for ten seconds as other simple things to do to improve blood flow to the brain.
