We just tried it, and it worked. It may have been a temporary issue.

Alcohol, Smoking, Bad fat, Stress, not enough nutrients and vitamins and minerals. These guys are a joke!

Take Gingko, Piracetam, Choline, Omega3, antioxidants (A,C,E,Selenium), Curcumin, Reishi, Withania somnifera.

I thought I was just losing my memory when I couldn't remember anything including my good friends' names. I was then told by my doctor that severe depression and anxiety can cause dementia-like symptoms. I was subsequently hospitalized for bipolar depression. My reason for telling people this is because I want you all to know that not all pathological reasons for memory loss are irreversible. In fact my memory is better than ever and I'm working on my masters in biochemistry.

It must've been a temporary issue, it is now working fine. Thank you very much for your work, PBS.

I hope you do more works like the one on the 22nd Century.
