SAN DIEGO, California — A trio of new studies shows that musical training affects the structure and function of different regions of the brain, how those regions communicate during the creation of music, and how the brain processes different sensory stimuli. These insights point to potential new roles for musical training, including fostering brain plasticity,Continue reading “Musical training for faster brain response in children and older adults”

Dietary nutrients and exercises for the brain
As any other organ, the brain is elaborated from substances present in the diet (sometimes exclusively, for vitamins, minerals, essential amino-acids and essential fatty acids, including omega- 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids). Most micronutrients (vitamins and trace-elements) have been directly evaluated in the setting of cerebral functioning. For instance, to produce energy, the use of glucoseContinue reading “Dietary nutrients and exercises for the brain”
Aging is a curable disease
Cambridge researcher Aubrey de Grey argues that aging is merely a disease — and a curable one at that. Humans age in seven basic ways, he says, all of which can be averted. Aubrey de Grey, British researcher on aging, claims he has drawn a roadmap to defeat biological aging. He provocatively proposes that theContinue reading “Aging is a curable disease”
Growth hormone DHEA increases libido/anti-aging
DHEA is the most common hormone in the human blood. Like steroids it has also been grossly misunderstood, with it being crucially restricted in empowering the art of love making. Blood levels are highest during our late teens and these begin to decline by the time we are 25 years of age. By 70 yearsContinue reading “Growth hormone DHEA increases libido/anti-aging”

Decreased Brain Glutamate in Alzheimer’s Disease and excitotoxic effect of Glutamate in Parkinson’s disease
Glutamate (Glu) is the most abundant excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system (CNS) and is involved in the pathophysiology of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in which there is an increased excitotoxicity. Biochemical composition of living tissues including the levels of Glu was analyzed by magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). Previous reports point to decreased levels ofContinue reading “Decreased Brain Glutamate in Alzheimer’s Disease and excitotoxic effect of Glutamate in Parkinson’s disease”
Antioxidant Vitamin C in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease
Oxidative stress is suggested to play a major role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Among the antioxidants, vitamin C has been regarded as the most important one in neural tissue. It also decreases β-amyloid generation and acetylcholinesterase activity and prevents endothelial dysfunction by regulating nitric oxide, a newly discovered factor in the pathogenesisContinue reading “Antioxidant Vitamin C in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease”
Reduce the stress hormone cortisol
When we are stressed and anxious , our immune system goes down and we are open to inflammation. So the root cause of most chronic diseases is chronic stress and anxiety. As we balance our hormones, our immune system becomes stronger. Our first step in the fight for inflammation is to reduce our stress hormone cortisol with exercise, whole foods, sleep, less stress, massage and supplementation.
