CNS

The central nervous system (CNS) is the body's control center, consisting of the brain and spinal cord. It processes sensory information, coordinates responses, and regulates vital functions like breathing, heartbeat, and consciousness. The brain is responsible for thought, memory, emotions, and decision-making, while the spinal cord transmits signals between the brain and the rest of the body. Common CNS disorders include strokes, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson's disease. Protecting the CNS through a healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, and mental stimulation is crucial for overall well-being.
