Folic Acid and DHA for Cognitive Function and Alzheimer’s
New research is explaining the importance of folic acid and DHA for improved cognitive function and prevention of neuro-degeneration. Folic acid is found to lower the brain and cardiovascular irritant, homocysteine. It directly improves brain function and helps to raise the levels of DHA in the blood. DHA is known to help generate new nerve growth, improve nerve transmission and connectivity, enhance nerve-related memory factors, and reduce brain inflammation.Read More: Acetyl-L-Carnitine, Alzheimer's, Carnosine, cognitive function, dementia, DHA, essential fatty acids, Folic Acid, homocysteine, neurodegeneration, PhosphatidylSerine PS, Stress Helper®
ADHD Linked to Poor Brain Development
A body of new scientific work is showing that ADHD may be rooted in the failure of the brain to develop at a normal rate, meaning that a 10 year old is behaving like a four year old and has a delay in anatomical brain development to prove it. This information is consistent with what I have been saying for some time about the importance of nutrient status in the womb, the health of the mother during pregnancy, especially regarding the subject of leptin. Womb-related issues and early life nutritional status are likely to have a huge bearing on childhood brain development and consequent intelligence (or lack thereof).Read More: Acetyl-L-Carnitine, B Vitamins, brain builders, brain development, Daily Protein Plus™, Daily Protein™, Daily Super Pack™, DHA, high blood pressure, Iosol Iodine, Leptin Control Pack®, Leptinal®, number game, Pantethine, PhosphatidylSerine PS, puzzles, Strengthener Plus, Super B Complex
Is Running Essential for Survival (and good sex)?
For the first time the release of endorphins from the human brain in response to a two-hour run has been proven. The theory of the runner’s high has been around for quite a while but never proven in a scientific lab. In the current experiment sophisticated brain PET scans were taken before and after running. The evidence showed release of endorphins from specific brain regions known to process pain. It could very well be that running is ingrained in our genetics at a core level of survival...Read More: Acetyl-L-Carnitine, Calcium AEP, Carnosine, Daily Energy Multiple Vitamin™, DHA, endorphins, PhosphatidylSerine PS, running, Stress Helper®, Super B Complex
How Stress Causes a Fatty Liver
New research has for the first time pinpointed the precise mechanism explaining how excess cortisol results in a fatty liver.Read More: cortisol, Daily Energy Multiple Vitamin™, fatty liver, Pantethine, PhosphatidylSerine PS, Sleep Helper™, Stress Helper®, Super B Complex
Phosphatidylserine Offsets Heavy Stress
Phosphatidylserine has been shown to offset the stress of intense exercise, a finding that transfers directly to any person under intense stress.Read More: Exercise, PhosphatidylSerine PS
Quality Sleep Boosts Memory and Learning
I was fascinated by a new study from researchers at the University of Chicago showing that complex tasks learned during the day, and often forgotten, were remembered in the morning after sleep helped to consolidate and preserve the new learning.Read More: learning, PhosphatidylSerine PS
The Amazing New World of HDL Cholesterol
The new scientific toolbox is being used to poke around in HDL’s house, only to find good news and bad news. HDL has been labeled “good” cholesterol because it helps remove damaged LDL cholesterol from your arteries and has generally been associated with having less cardiovascular disease. It is now coming to light that the quality of the HDL you have is as important, if not more important, than the amount of HDL you have.Read More: HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, Pantethine, PhosphatidylSerine PS, plaque
Another Thyroid Risk: Did Your Mom Smoke While Pregnant?
A new thyroid study shows that a mother who smokes during pregnancy not only has an adverse influence on her own thyroid hormone status during pregnancy, but also passes abnormalities in thyroid hormone function on to her baby. This latter finding should serve as a heads up to women or men who had smoking mothers – as it is quite likely that this causes later-life risk for thyroid problems – especially those induced by stress.Read More: Daily Energy Multiple Vitamin™, PhosphatidylSerine PS, Sleep Helper™, smoking, Stress Helper®, Thyroid Helper®
Nutrients Stop Cognitive Decline
Researchers at the University of Massachusetts have demonstrated that a mixture of fine quality dietary supplements (ALC, DHA, PS, and Lipoic Acid) can stop oxidative damage in the brains of animals, the type of damage that otherwise leads to cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s.Read More: ALC, cognitive decline, DHA, Lipoic Acid, PhosphatidylSerine PS
Quality Sleep is Needed for Memory and Learning
When teachers watch grades plummet they invariably know something stressful is going on in that student’s life. That is because the inflammation resulting from the problems is disturbing sleep – and a good night’s sleep is now turning out to be the key to memory and learning.Read More: brain plasticity, learning, PhosphatidylSerine PS, Sleep Helper™
