Recommendations from Haluk Saçaklı to the students who will take the LGS exam

Haluk Saçaklı, a healthy lifestyle specialist, says that students must have breakfast and added: “With breakfast, the detection period is shortened in children, the concentration becomes much more efficient. In students who do not have breakfast, physical and mental depressions occur.”

Faculty Member of Istanbul Gelisim University Dr. Haluk Saçaklı reccomended to start the day with breakfast for a stronger memory. Describing the must-have foods for breakfast Dr. Haluk Saçaklı said: “For strengthening the cerebral and bodily formation and concentration, they should keep milk and their products at breakfast. Multigrain breads feed the brain and prevent mental fatigue. Nutrients such as butter, olives, nuts and walnuts have a positive effect on memory. Egg yolks are useful in memory. Green Tea improves attention and brain wave activity. Dark chocolate improves intelligence development in young and children and improves cognitive functions”.

WHEN TO SLEEP PRIOR TO EXAMINATION?

Stating that quality sleep strengthens memory Dr. Saçaklı noted: “Sleep, allows the body and brain to be renewed. Protects the protein capacity of the brain. Mental, arithmetic, mathematical analyzes are slowed down in those who cannot sleep. Fast recall and learning ability is reduced. Before 22:00 - 24:30, it is necessary to get up from 05:00 to 07:00. 7 - 8 hours sleep will be enough”.

Also giving information about methods to reduce the stress of examinations Dr. Haluk Saçaklı “Take a 10 - 15 minute walk before the exam. Stretch and loosen the foot muscles. Tighten and release your face for 15 seconds. Do breathing exercises in the diaphragm. Close your eyes before your exam and feel that you are relaxed within 15 seconds from your feet to your neck”.

Emphasizing that students who do not exercise can not get enough oxygen to the brain Saçaklı said the following: “If the brain can not get enough oxygen, the efficiency of the brain capacity is reduced. The information is handled slowly. Late detection, fast forgetting are noticed by reflections. When the exercise is done, the brain creates new nerve cells. These new cells strengthen the relationship between the old brain cells. The brain works more smoothly. Ability to learn and remember strengthens”

Saçaklı also added that on the day of the exam and you must not have a red color by the side, and looking at the red, reduce the success of the exam and the motivation of the student.
