Brain booster Supplement?

Forgetting thing easily recently and needed some brain booster. Not sure if I should buy pure Ginkgo Biloba content or a mixture of Ginkgo Biloba with Phosphatidyl and Vitamin content. Anyone tried some good brand and care to share?

Brain booster Supplement?
Omega 3 in fish oil capsules! My mom in law is getting dementia, an I see a great improvement since she started taking them (she doesn%26#039;t call me her sister%26#039;s name anymore and seems to remember ALOT more than before she started it)
Reply:Before you try any of those %26quot;brain booster%26quot; do your research. Most of those have had to change their labels for making claims that were not true
Reply:supplements only work if you aren%26#039;t getting enough of that substance in your usual diet, so don%26#039;t think you can over load on some herb and get a great memory.
Reply:Good quality Omega 3 oils are excellent for regulating brain processes. They can help concentration, depression, indecision etc. Including vitamin B 6 would also be a big help. I can vouch for both-- tried and tested !
Reply:I asked this same question about a week ago and fish oil and Bramhi were suggested to me. I have been on them a week. I had a trauma when I was younger and blocked it from my memory I think it affected my memory ever since as I find it frustratingly hard to remember things. Good luck.
Reply:For memory loss try eating more foods rich in Vitamin B1 (thiamine) ie ~ brewer%26#039;s yeast, whole grain breads and cereals, meat (pork or liver), nuts, legumes such as peas, beans and lentils and potatoes.





also take a multi B complex supplement including all the B%26#039;s ie ~ B1, B2, B3, B5, B6 and B12 as they work best as a group..... The B complex of vitamins are essential for a healthy digestive, neural and immune system...... Do not purchase any of the B complex of vitamins individually unless under the specific instructions of a nutritionally oriented physician or naturopath.





The need for B1 (and the B complex) increases when we are stressed, during illness and surgery. B1 has beneficial effects on the nervous system and mental attitude and will also aid in digestion and keep nervous system, muscles and heart functioning normally............ The B complex of vitamins will help bolster your system so as you can better deal with the everyday little dramas life presents for us ♥





It is a water soluble complex and as such our bodies can neither produce or store them. Therefore we need to ingest them on a daily basis or suffer the side affects.





When we are placed under added stress the first group of vitamins to be used up will generally be the B complex and as such we need to adjust our intake accordingly........ when you are stressed and generally frazzled simply take another B complex supplement. As they are a water soluble group any excess you ingest will simply be excreted in your urine.





Also, an L-glutamine supplement taken 3 times daily on an empty stomach will also bolster a healthy immune and nervous system and assist in maintaining muscle function....... it also helps maintain the health of intestinal flora and thus is a digestive aid ♥ Glutamine is a natural amino acid and a naturally occuring antioxidant and does a marvellous job for me at increasing my level of concentration and for bolstering my ability to retain information ♥





Other nutrients which are said to enhance your memory and make you smarter are ~ Fish oils (those found in cold water fishes such as tuna and salmon do a brilliant of levelling out your moods, stress levels and attention to detail) as other posters have already mentioned, Vitamine E (i would suggest eating more foods rich in Vitamin E as opposed to supplementing), grapeseed extract, lipoic acid, Vitamin B3 (niacin), Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine), vitamin B12 (cobalamin),folic acid, choline, gingko biloba (i haven%26#039;t used it myself so unfortunately am unable to recommend a brand for you), gotu kola ............ obviously none of them will turn you into Albert Einsteen but you%26#039;ll surely start remembering where you put your keys though buddy ♥





Things that could be robbing you of your precious B complex of vitamins are :- eating too much protein, alcohol, eating too much tinned food, laxatives and diuretics, antiobiotics, antidepressants, penicillin, prednisone and aspirin, otc cold and flu medicines.





Also, try to cut back on drinks such as caffeine, tea, sodas and soft drinks as they are all B complex thieves........ as well as being great at dehydrating you.





When you take your daily B complex supplement ensure that you take it with some type of calcium rich food ie: low fat cheese or milk or a calcium supplement that contains vitamin D3 as they all work in conjunction with one another.





Quite a handfull of information here ........ sorry it%26#039;s a bit long winded but you need to know all this.





Drink loads of fresh filtered water too as the happiest and healthiest body will always be the most hydrated one.





I sincerely wish you the best of health %26amp; vitality buddy♥





take care of you♥
