Loss of memory
Eight substances that improve your memory.
You may wonder why you clearly remember remote memories, including those of your childhood while you tend to forget more recent events like the names of people you've met recently. The reason is the loss of brain cells, bad blood, energy circulation in the brain and the lack of certain necessary chemicals.
You begin to lose brain cells a few at a time when you're in your 20s and the loss of brain cells increases as you grow older. As the years pass your organs make less of the chemicals your brain cells need to work. Naturally the older you become the more these deficiencies may cause loss of memory.
So to avoid loss of memory prematurely and to bring your lost memory back you should eat the following eight substances.
Acetylcholine
Important brain chemical that helps improve memory and the ability to think. Such chemical comes from phosphatidyl-choline found in lecithin. Two sources of lecithin are soybeans and sesame seeds.
DMA (Dimethylamino-ethanol)
Phosphatidyl-serine Revitalizes nerve cells. Has shown to slow cognitive loses due to aging.
Vinpocetine (Periwinkle extract). Enhances memory and concentration.
Aminoacids (Arginine, glutamine, methionine, and others). These building blocks of proteins are responsible for several functions of the nervous system.
Ginkgo biloba Makes the blood thinner therefore contributing to circulation through the narrowest capillaries in the brain. The Blood supply brings oxygen to the brain that increases its functions. This avoids loss of memory.
Ginseng This herb improves mental functions and stamina as well as physical endurance.
Proanthocyanidin (Extracted from grape seeds or pine bark). An antioxidant that protects the brain and the central nervous system. Known to strengthen the blood vessel walls and to increase circulation.
Proanthocyanidin helps prevent ischemia in brain tissue and reduces mental deterioration.
Things to help you remember.
Keep lists. Follow a routine. Make associations. Associate in your mind what you want to remember to landmarks for example. Book things to do in a calendar. Keep your things like eye glasses and keys in the same spot all the time. When you are introduced to new people, mentally or verbally repeat their names. Be consciously in the present when you are doing something. Repeat several times the names of people, places and things that you usually forget. Today is the day for you to stop being embarassed by your loss of memory for good.
