“Memory loss isn’t a natural part of getting older. It’s the brain’s response to something specific — something we’ve been overlooking.”

The real enemy is a silent toxin that builds up inside your brain, breaking down the connections between your brain cells — leaving you lost in a fog of confusion and forgetting even the simplest names.

Over 80% of people over 55 already have dangerous levels of this toxin circulating without knowing it.

To store and retrieve new information, the brain relies on acetylcholine to form neural connections. Acetylcholine production decreases as we age, limiting the brain’s ability to create new short-term memories. We may easily recall people or events from decades ago, but struggle to remember where we parked our car or left our keys.

A combination of a healthy lifestyle and a cognitive health supplement can keep our mind sharp and help recapture the focus, concentration, and mental clarity we had years ago.

The brain’s chemistry and the structural integrity of the neurons’ wiring deteriorate with aging. It might take some time for the brain to forge a path to where the memory is stored. Most “memory loss” in seniors slows performance. They can still learn, retain, and recall plenty of information, but it might take you longer than when they were younger.

Some forms of memory loss are caused by head trauma, including brain injuries. Memory loss can be part of a primary brain disease, but can also result from from depression, thyroid malfunction, stress, fatigue,  sleep deprivation and and even vitamin deficiencies. We can improve memory with appropriate treatment.
