Fact # 30: Age 30

Since this is out 30th fact, out 30th anniversary of our 1st fact, and just a pretty cool daily thing we do, I will give a fact having to do with '30.'

After age 30, the brain shrinks about a quarter of a percent (0.25%) in mass each year. So, not only is 30 a hurtful age to the 30-year-olds, but you brain gets smaller, too? I suppose that explains a LOT.


30 Years Old:

  ______
 /             \
(               \
 \_______)

40 Years Later:


  _____
(            \
 \______)


Oh, poor adults. More specifically, poor adults age 30+ :( Good thing I'm not there yet!!!

Haha



Happy 30th anniversary, 1st fact!
