6 surprising habits that secretly harm our brain every day

Many of us are glued to our phones, scrolling through social media, checking messages, and reading news. However, long screen time can strain the brain. A study published in the journal “Frontiers in Psychology” suggests that excessive phone usage impacts attention span, while also increasing stress levels due to information overload.
