The second brain contains some 100 million neurons, more than in either the spinal cord or the peripheral nervous system, Gershon says. This multitude of neurons in the enteric nervous system enables us to feel the inner world of our gut and its contents.
Processes that lead to the death of neurons. The brain loses about 10000 neurons a day and if you have a bad diet, alcohol or other drugs are abused, the number is much higher. In drunkenness can lose up to 1000000 neurons. Stress prevents the new formation of neurons and even kills them. Hypertension can lead to the death of neurons.
