THINK TANK GETTING FUZZY?

Let's go off the standard vitamin search and unto some that we may not know much about. Well, Old Trunks doesn't know about. Put this into a research frame of mind.

All of us want to be 'sharp as a tack' when we decease. From now until then, we all hope our bowl of words are there for us. Physician's offer numerous tests and if they don't find significant results, then considerations of depression, anxiety, stress, and pre-occupied are considered. What if you aren't any of them? Is that when it is time to eat memory foods or take memory supplements? Do they work?

It is worrisome to be told you are normal and call it age associated memory impairment. Maybe once we reach our middle years we have mental changes. Maybe some people have more fatty tissue which holds the cells together as well as acts as a revolving door for information to come in and go out.

It isn't the old memories that are impaired; it is the short term memories that suffer. Names and telephone numbers seem to suffer the most. Writing things down helps us to remember, (if we remember that we wrote it down).

Maybe instead of a pat on the head, people who are plagued with the thought of loosing their memory, where given phosphatidylserine for a few weeks.? Would it, as advertised really give you back enhanced memory, concentration, and be given back an average of 12 years of memory.

Are you worth $29.95 for an experiment of a couple of weeks? Time to do some in depth searching to see the other side of the story. What mixes with what!

But wait! What about pregnenolone? That is suppose to make me smarter, happier, AND reduce the inflammation of arthritis! Levels of pregnenolone are said to diminish with age.

Pregnenolone was used in the 1940's for patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Once cortisone was discovered the interest in pregnenolone waned. Cortisone became the magic bullet over night, despite the side effects. Here we are 60 years later and there is still no cure for RA.

Which will come first? Pen run out of ink for making notes OR pregnenolone trial?
