20% of your body weight last heard, take yours off put it on the scale to see what it weighs


That "20%" sounds more like the energy consumed, rather than weight, but I am sure some do use more or less then others. biggrin

"Despite this, even at rest, the brain consumes 20% of the body's energy. The brain consumes energy at 10 times the rate of the rest of the body per gram of tissue. The average power consumption of a typical adult is 100 Watts and the brain consumes 20% of this making the power of the brain 20 W"

Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
