Why we only can use our brain not even reach 5%?


Answer:
The idea that we use only 5-10% of our brains is misleading. When healthy, we use all areas of our cortex for different functions. The parts we don't use for thinking are connective tissue (structural components), blood vessels, etc., which make up a lot of the mass of the brain. This may be the meaning behind the statement that we use only a portion of our brain.
We use all of our brain, that is areas in the brain, yet we do not use it to full capacity, there is a difference. So in that sense it is not misleading at all that we only use a certain percentage of our brain. That area has not evolved to full capacity yet, given time it will at some point.
We do use our whole brain, just not all at the same time. Do you use every program on your computer at once? That would be silly.When the whole brain fires at once, we call that a seizure.The proof that we use our whole brain - when little bits die (that's a stroke), we notice.
