Latest research results show the game that challenges the ability to remember, logic, and other brain games do not make people become more intelligent. Thus the conclusion of research conducted by researchers at the UK Medical Research Council.

Study involving 11 430 people in the UK that found that brain exercises with games like that fail to improve the ability of brain function in general, including IQ. Both are doing exercise regularly or who are not the same.

"If people feel comforted when to play it, do it. But if they want to be more clever, do not expect," said Adrian Owen, a researcher from The Cognitive and Brain Sciences Medical Research Council UK as reported by BusinessWeek on Wednesday (04/21/2010).

These findings argue with the lure of dozens of software brain games for children or elderly that promise improvement of brain function. According to him, the results of research that has been published in the journal Nature concluded that the purchase of such software is a waste of money.

"You might be better to read a book or learning a foreign language rather than throwing a lot of money for a brain training like that," said Owen. In fact, continued Owen, the Internet provides a wide range of information sources is enough to crammed into the brain with new information.
