šŸ§ Supplements for cognition - nootropics šŸ§ 

Research for this type of supplement has been ongoing for many years. 

I had vaguely been aware ā€” having heard about this from my studentsā€™ parents. Of course, I was not allowed to comment on their choice of treatment for their student/child. 

While there is never a true substitute for a medical opinion, it does seem that perhaps all of the research may yield some benefits for people needing a bit of help in cognition.

 

The Alzheimerā€™s Association does not suggest supplements to HALT THE PROGRESS OF THE DISEASE. Neither do they state that no benefits are gained.

Speaking for myself, my brain started feeling ā€œtiredā€ in my late 50ā€™s. It felt scary. Notice caffeine in the list above...it helps me think more clearly.

 

The circled items are contained in some of Andrew Lessmanā€™s products. The supplement ā€œRhodiola Rosaā€ is available as a tea and also ā€œPLNTā€ available from the Medicine Shoppe.

Can not spend time on your posting - your icon or whatever you call it is....so annoying.  Something a little kinder to the eyes would be appreciated.

@LTT1

 

Ginkgo is supposed to help.  It does thin the blood, so that has to be taken into consideration.  I take it regularly, but I am still a brick shy of a load sometimes LOL.  

 

I am wary about where the supplements are made.
