A doctor has provided 1 answer
Atrophy: Atrophy literally means "without food." in reference to the brain it represents a wasting or decrease in the size of the brain owing to disease, injury, or lack of use. It is effected by many factors including hydration status, medications, and other concomitant medical problems. Hopefully this will spur you on to activate your brain as it is one of the factors you can control. Take care.
