Brain Size Facts and Notable Variations Across Populations

A survey of brain weights shows men averaging 47 ounces and women about four to five ounces less, with the brain heavier than most animals except the elephant and whale. There are noted exceptions among Gambetta and an idiot with a 55 ounce brain, while Descartes Raphael and Voltaire had small heads. English, French, Dutch, Italian, Swedish, and German brains vary by region, with India 41-44 ounces and America about 46. Brace Up promotes Electric as a 50 cent blood purifier for vitality, plus Kilmer’s Ocean-Weed for heart-related symptoms.
