HARVARD MEDICAL SCHOOL STATES THAT AGING ITSELF DOES NOT CAUSE A SIGNIFICANT LOSS OF NEURONS IN THE HIPPOCAMPUS ( IN THE BRAIN).....That is the part of the brain that is involved with storing and retreiving memories. They also state that adults can grow new brain cells!!!!! Age related memory loss is related to damage of the " NMDA RECEPTORS". What this tells us is that memory loss isn't an inevitable process of old age.
There are the things that Harvard Medical School suggests you do because of many studies they have done at that University Medical School.
1) Education and Intelligence= people who study have more brain connections then people who don't.
2) Mental Exercises: just like going to a gym to exercise your body, you must exercise your brain.
3) Stress: High Cortisol levels ( people who are stressed) lost more hippocampal brain cells than people with lower cortisol levels.
4) Sleep=getting a good night's sleep improves your memory.
5) Hypertension= High BLood Pressure is associated with cognitive defects 25 years after the hypertension begins.
6) Vitamin E the anti-oxidant protects brain cells from damage of free radicals. Those with low Vitamin E were consistently associated with poor memory.

This is one of my favorite supplements!!! It makes you want to complete your chores and work when you don't want to. Vinpocetine is derived from vincamine, an alkaloid found in the periwinkle plant. Vinpocetine has been used in medical practice in Europe for over 2 decades. It is a tablet that is small and can be swallowed easily. Experiments with Vinpocetine show that it can dilate blood vessels, enhance circulation in the brain, improve oxygen utilization, make red blood cells more pliable, and inhibit aggregation of platelets. Vinpocetine has antioxidant properties too. Levels peak in the bloodstream within an hour and a half after ingestion. Vinpocetine easily crosses the blood-brain barrier. Once you try it you will agree with me that this plant is definately a blessing from The Almighty!!! You can use it everyday but you don't have to. For me, I take one on those days when I want to "play hooky" and I know I have a full day of work ahead of me. It enhances bloodflow to brain. That means your memory will improve. Good for Tinnitus and Vertigo too!!!!
This little plant really helps. Please take it with food.
Vinpocetine 20 mgs, 60 tablets not capsules. Usual dose is one per day.
