Because scientists are still researching the ins and outs of human memory it is difficult to say how it works and how it can be enhanced. Nevertheless, there are a number of natural substances that have been thoroughly studied over the last few years which have been shown to have a positive effect on human memory. One of my assistants was able to collect the following information. But before you read this, or take any action, you must understand that you should always consult your physician - this email is for educational purposes only and I do not take any liability in your use of these.

Some substances you might want to research more include:

• Epicatechin - scientific testing has shown that this naturally occurring flavinol - which is found in tea, cocoa, grapes and blueberries - produces a significant functional change in the area of the brain that is commonly associated with memory and learning. Scientists now believe that a diet rich in Epicetechin could help to reduce the prevalence of neurodegenerative diseases in later life.

• Club moss - this has been used in Chinese medicine for centuries however it has only recently been discovered that the herb contains two active ingredients - huperzine A and huperzine B - which help to prevent the breakdown of acetylcholine in the brain. Acetylcholine is a vital neurotransmitter that conveys messages from one nerve cell to another and is thought to be involved in the movement of memories from short term to long term storage and back again. Club moss can be drunk as a tea on a daily basis or taken as a tablet or capsule.

• Ginkgo Biloba - this herb has many functions however it is probably best known for its brain boosting abilities. It has been shown to improve memory and reduce the symptoms of senility and dementia. This is thought to occur because Ginkgo has a dilating effect on the blood vessels of the body and so when taken regularly it can increase the blood flow to the brain and therefore the amount of oxygen as well.

• Rosemary - this herb has been used in cooking for thousands of years and recently it has been touted as a very good memory enhancer. Rosemary contains an active ingredient called carnosic acid which has potent antioxidant properties. When taken over a period of time, the antioxidant ingredient helps to combat free radicals in the body - which are thought to contribute to premature aging and memory loss. The herb also contains a substance called acetylcholinestrase inhibitor which again prevents the breakdown of acetylcholine in the brain's cells.

• Gotu Kola - this herb has been used in Chinese and Indian medicine for centuries and is now available as tablets and capsules. It contains strong antioxidants that help to rid the body, and especially the brain, from the damaging effects of free radicals. Free radicals are thought to contribute to cellular death and premature memory loss as a consequence.

• Vitamin B complex - the B vitamins are required by the body for many reasons, one of which is that they help the neurotransmitter acetylcholine to work as it should in the brain. They also assist with the transporting of oxygen to the brain via the blood system and so a vitamin B deficiency can result in slow thinking and poor memory. Vitamin B is found in high quantities in lentils, soybeans, liver and eggs plus it is widely available as a dietary supplement.

These are just some of the natural substances that have been found to help with memory enhancement. No doubt there are many more in the world but until they are researched more thoroughly you'll have to stick with these.The news come from http://www.bossgoo.com/
