Saturday, February 13th, 2010

No need to bother going to the fitness appear to be slim. Simply by playing Sudoku alone. According to the researchers, play Sudoku for one hour can burn up to 90 calories of energy. Sudoku diet are believed to make the body stay slim.

The name ‘Sudoku’ is a Japanese abbreviation of ‘dokushin wa Suuji ni kagiru’, it means the numbers must remain single. Sudoku is also known as Number Place or Nanpure, is a kind of logic puzzle. The goal is to fill in the numbers from 1 to 9 into the 9×9 nets consisting of 9 box 3×3 without repeating numbers in a row, column or box.

Not only Sudoku, more games like puzzle, and quiz can also burn about 90 calories in one hour. One researcher explained that a person’s brain takes 0.1 calories per minute to be able to work and live.

When we do something challenging like playing a puzzle or a quiz, then each minute will have 1.5 calories burned, “That is, if you do the game for 1 hour, about 90 calories can be burned. The amount that can burn the calories from these foods like a chocolate chip cookie (56 calories), cream (57 calories), jam (85 calories) and other foods.

The brain consists of billions of nerve cells called neurons. Neurons produce a chemical called a neurotransmitter that functions to transmit messages throughout the body via a signal.
To produce neurotransmitters, neurons need a 3 / 4 of glucose calories and 1 / 5 oxygen from the blood.
This means that, if the brain doing something difficult like to think, it takes a lot of calories to produce neurotransmitters. That is why by doing puzzles or playing Sudoku, calories will be much used and burned.

But thinking alone will not make a person thinner because the percentage of energy used by the brain is a little fat burning. The brain burns more calories than sugar, so if you want to burn fat, exercise is still needed.

Nevertheless, the current Sudoku believed to help the body stay slim because of burning calories is pretty good. Millions of people now use Sudoku to improve mathematics and to logic. But now, Sudoku is not only sharpen the brain, but also burn calories.

Researchers say this Sudoku diet can be an alternative for someone who did not have much time to exercise or fitness to the outside. Simply sit or lie in bed and doing the game or visit the Web sites of the brain games.
