This soft cover text mainly written by Bruce McEwen entitled The End of Stress as We Know It presents research on the connection between functions of the brain and how these functions are positively affected or stimulated by stress. In addition to this, this text also shows how stress can bring on ailment and other health disturbances such as asthma, diabetes, ulcers and increased susceptibility.

Perhaps what this book describes are the two types of stress—eustress and distress. Eustress is the type of stress that is defined by psychologists as the stress that we need in order to function well in a day to day basis.  Distress by the way is the type of stress that cause most of the problems such as being fired, having to cope with sudden deaths, unwanted pregnancies and such things. It is obvious that the type of stress that this book ‘ends’ is the distress since most of the time, it is only this type of stress that we call ‘stress.’  So, it is quite good that this book made clear the distinction between the two types of stress and that it made it possible for people to understand that not all stresses are bad for us after all.  Some are just there so we are ‘driven’ to function and go on living. more info

Recent research has show shown that the competence of the neurons (brain cells) declines after years of being exposed to stress and other brain-related health conditions. So it isn’t a mystery why, as we got older, our memory problems also increase. But thanks to the wonders of modern medicine, medical experts believe that the downward memory spiral is reversible.

Groundbreaking research shows that there’s a simple way to stimulate the growth of new brain cells that can enhance our memory, improve our focus and re-establish our mind’s mental sharpness.

Neurostin is a scientifically-formulated, non-prescription memory boost supplement which can stop and overturn memory loss, and prevent further damage to brain cells.

Neurostin comes in a bottle enough for one-month supply and contains 60 capsules.  Two capsules per day.

Neurostin™ formula contains:

L-Alpha Glycerylphosphorylcholine (Alpha-GPC)
Phosphatidylserine
Vinpocetine
Folic Acid
Vitamins B6 and B12
Green Tea
Alpha Lipoic Acid
Pantothenic Acid (vitamin B5)

These Ingredients perform the following actions:

• L-Alpha Glycerylphosphorylcholine (Alpha-GPC) clinically proven to increase brain function in 22 clinical trials involving more than 4,000 subjects

• Phosphatidylserine — plays a key role is the maintenance of the nervous system by assisting your brain cells to be able to more effectively absorb nutrients and has been clinically proven in 16 double-blind studies worldwide to enhance cognitive performance.

• Vinpocetine – clinically proven in more than a dozen studies to enhance cerebral blood flow.

• Folic Acid, vitamins B6 and B12 — responsible for regulating homocysteine. In a large clinical study conducted for 8 years with 1092 individuals, those with the highest homocysteine levels were the ones who developed dementia and Alzheimer’s. The study concluded that keeping homocysteine at a steady level will greatly decrease your risk of long term memory loss.

You should not wait until you lose your focus or develop a serious case of forgetfulness that can endanger not only yourself but also your loved ones.
