Startling Evidence of Brain Decay at Age 39

Deterioration of myelin sheathing causes a “leakage” of electrical energy out the sides of nerves, resulting in disrupted function. A news study in healthy men clearly shows that loss of myelin sheathing begins at age 39, a slow decay of nerve function which also relates to memory. The initial sign is simply a loss of reflex speed.

The Potential for Intelligence is Inherited

A unique brain-imaging study of identical twins and fraternal twins has shown that genes have a profound influence on the integrity of nerve cell connections, resulting in faster processing speed and potential for intelligence. The study identified that the health of the myelin sheathing of nerves was a key sign of brain health.

Acetyl-L-Carnitine Helps Stabilize Myelin Sheathing of Nerves

A new study shows that acetyl-l-carnitine has a regulatory effect on the genes that control the myelin sheathing of nerve axons, helping to promote their stability and integrity.
