Herbal and memoryGotu kola has a long history of supporting brain function. It promotes relaxation and improves memory. In the brain it improves neural activity, circulation, protects membranes, and may restore serotonin receptors. In addition to the uses discussed under Ginkgo/Gotu Kola, gotu kola has also been used in early states of macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy. Each capsule of Gotu Kola (100 capsules) contains 395 mg of gotu kola. Each capsule of Gotu Kola, ATC Concentrate (50 capsules) contains 375 mg of concentrated gotu kola. Focus essential oil blend (Basil, Lavender Fine AOC, Pink Grapefruit Bio, Rosemary) is invigorating and centering. Focus supports your memory and powers of concentration. It is the perfect blend for school, home or the office. You may want to apply to your forehead, behind your ears, back of your neck and on your temples. It stimulates, uplifts, clears the mind and promotes mental focus. Suggested uses: diffusion, massage and inhalation. Do not use with those who have high blood pressure. Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) is balancing, invigorating, antiseptic, revitalizing, warming and regenerating. Rosemary stimulates the central nervous system and strengthens mental clarity, concentration, awareness, and memory. It has a pungent, woody, camphor-like aroma. Rosemary has the ability to stimulate circulation on the skin and scalp. It has been used as a tonic for the heart and with arteriosclerosis. It warms and relieves cold, bronchial, and asthmatic spasms. It aids the liver function and may aid in treatment of gallbladder problems. Rosemary is also a very effective inhalant that is useful in massage, baths, shampoos and facials. Suggested uses: diffusion, massage, bath and shower, inhalation, skin and hair, household. Herb`s have magnificent herbal healing powers and can be used to treat many serious yet common ailments and boost your health. Vitamin B 12 and MemoryLow B12 Linked with Poor Memory in People with High-Risk Genotype for Alzheimer’s Among healthy people over the age of 75 who have the genotype associated with higher risk for Alzheimer’s, low levels of vitamin B12 are associated with significantly worse performance on memory tests. This finding is published in the April issue of Neuropsychology, which is published by the American Psychological Association (APA). David Bunce, PhD, a psychologist at Goldsmith’s College, University of London, Miia Kivipelto, PhD, MD, of the Aging Research Center at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm and the Stockholm Gerontology Research Center, and Åke Wahlin, PhD, a psychologist at the University of Stockholm, conducted the study as part of a long-term multidisciplinary project that follows older people living in Stockholm’s Kungsholmen parish. Scientists already knew of a genetic predisposition for Alzheimer’s disease, and that low levels of two B vitamins— B12 and folate—were also linked to problems. However, few had examined nutrition and genotype together relative to cognition, to reflect what real people carry into old age – a mix of inborn traits and environmental factors such as nutrition, including undiagnosed vitamin B deficiencies. The apolipoprotein E gene, which moves cholesterol in the body, has a version called the ?4 allele. Carried by perhaps 15 percent of the population, it is a risk factor for dementia. Current data collected over a six-year period suggests that nearly one out of four carriers with one copy of this allele and nearly half carrying two copies will develop Alzheimer’s disease. Non-carriers also can get Alzheimer’s. Carriers of the ?4 allele have smaller hippocampi, brain areas associated with memory, so the researchers wanted to measure how an additional physiological shortfall such as low Vitamin B, affected this particular group -- given that reduced B12 and folate have been linked generally with diminished memory and increased risk for Alzheimer’s. Perhaps 10 percent of adults aged 75 years and older have low B12 or folate. Project index
