Why is Gaming Harmful?

 Evidence shows that video gaming can affect the brain and, can cause changed in many parts of the brain. Recently, scientists have collected and summarised results from 116 scientific studied to prove how video games can influence our brains and behaviours. 

“Games have sometimes been praised or demonized, often without real data backing up those claims. Moreover, gaming is a popular activity, so everyone seems to have strong opinions on the topic,” says Marc Palaus - the finding was published in Frontiers in Human Neuroscience.

Results of the studies indicate that playing video games can not only change how our brains perform but also their structure.
