Fish Oil For Memory Improvement
Sometimes a cup of hot chocolate is just the thing to counter the effects of a cold winter day. I don't drink it very often, but I just love it and it always perks up my mood.
I used to get the same feeling when I would see my exam scores, back in medical school. But once you knew where you stood, you just found the nearest bed and passed out. This is completely different. You drink the hot chocolate, and then get motivated to get something accomplished.
I saw an interesting article in my local paper yesterday. I can't saw that I often find relevant news in my little local paper, but obviously, you never know.
The article was about the USA National Memory Championship, which is a competition that was begun in 1997 by Tony Dottino, owner of the Dottino Consulting Group. The upshot is that when the Dottino Group started applying neuroscience to business models, they discovered that most people have no idea of what remarkable things their own brains can accomplish.
Tony found that when discussing this topic with people, most seemed to want to avoid the topic altogether, and were especially interested in avoiding the subject of anything having to do with memory.
Their number one concern: That as you get older, you'll lose your memory.
Tony set out to educate people, teaching, "Your brain is like a muscle, and must be exercised. When given the proper training, it gets stronger, regardless of age."
Tony had a friend named Tony Buzan, who ran a competition in a English pub where patrons were pitted against each other to test their memories.
The Tonys got together and created the USA Memory Championship.
You may be wondering: what is Chester's secret?
Be patient, and I'll let you in on the secret.
Contestants in the Memory Championship compete in events like this:
1. They are required to memorize 99 names and faces.
2. They are required to memorize the order of a shuffled deck of cards.
3. Poetry
4. They must memorize numbers that are given out very fast.
5. A list of 500 words or 1000 random numbers
Hell...I was humbled by just the list.
Chester is the defending National Memory Champion, and has competed for the last seven years.
Chester does 3 hours a day of memory exercises, and he also takes fish oil, which he swears enhances the functioning of his brain. He also takes a B-complex vitamin, which he believes goes a long way towards enhancing his concentration.
So why does fish oil improve Chester's memory? The brain consists of at least 30% DHA, which is one of the omega-3 fatty acids contained in fish oil. DHA enhances brain power and helps maintain brain cell membranes. So we can't be too surprised to learn that Chester counts on fish oil to help him improve his memory.
Good food, exercise, and pharmaceutical grade fish oil will keep your brain functioning at an optimum level, as demonstrated by the defending champ. You can keep your own brain sharp by using an ultra pure pharmaceutical grade fish oil from the deep arctic waters of Norway.
For Baby Boomers, their utmost health concern is the possibility of Alzheimer's and memory loss. What Boomers should know is that pharmaceutical-grade fish oil, combined with proper nutrition and exercise will go a long way towards keeping their minds focused and sharp well into the future.
So while we may not win the National Memory Championship, we have an excellent chance of remembering where our car is parked in the shopping mall. - 17268
