<div class="text-justify" style="text-align: justify;">If there is a way to keep your memories tight, fill your lungs with your nose. Unlike the mouth, the way of the nose would be the most effective way to consolidate our memory.</div>

<div class="text-justify" style="text-align: justify;">The basis of this is that of some Swedish neurologists from the Department of Clinical Neurosciences of the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, who collaborated with the Dutch colleagues of the Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behavior in Nijmegen.</div>
&nbsp;
<div class="text-justify" style="text-align: justify;">They started from an assumption: memory and breathing are intimately linked and, basing their research on previous research, which had shown a close correlation between breathing and cognitive functions, they arrive for the first time to the conclusion that if we breathe through the nose Instead of using your mouth, after trying to learn a series of smells, we remember them better.</div>
&nbsp;
<blockquote>
<blockquote>
<div class="text-justify" style="text-align: justify;">"Our study shows that we remember odors better if we breathe through the nose when memory consolidates, in a process that occurs between learning and memory recovery," says Artin Arshamian, a researcher at the Department of Clinical Neuroscience in Karolinska. Institute.</div>
&nbsp;

</blockquote>
<div class="text-justify" style="text-align: justify;">For the new study, the researchers asked participants to learn twelve different scents and then breathe through their nose or mouth for a consecutive hour. In the end, they were presented with the old and a new set of twelve other scents, asking to recognize which were already present in the first session.</div>
&nbsp;
<p>The results showed that when participants breathed through the nose between learning and recognition, they remembered odors better.</p>

<div class="text-justify" style="text-align: justify;">The reason is explained in the phases of inhalation and exhalation, when different parts of the brain are activated, even if it is still unknown, since this affects all brain activity.</div>
&nbsp;
<blockquote>
<blockquote>
<div class="text-justify" style="text-align: justify;">"The idea that breathing affects our behavior is not new, just think about meditation, the next step is to measure what really happens in the brain and how it is connected to memory," concludes Arshamian.</div>
