According to Kukushkin, the memories stored in non-brain cells in other parts of the body are memories strictly related to the roles that those specific cells play in human health. Thus, he detailed:
Vitamin K2 may have a protective effect on bone mineral density and reduced risk of hip, vertebral and non-vertebral fractures. [11] These effects appear to be accentuated when combined with vitamin D and in the setting of osteoporosis. [1] Research suggests that vitamin K 2 (Menaquinone 7, MK-7]) may reduce the rate and severity of night time ...
Osteocalcin is secreted solely by osteoblasts and is thought to play a role in the body's metabolic regulation. [12] In its carboxylated form, calcium is bound directly to the bone and thus concentrates here. In its uncarboxylated form, osteocalcin acts as a hormone in the body, signalling in the pancreas, fat, muscle, testes, and brain. [13]
Neuroscience acknowledges the existence of many types of memory and their physical location within the brain is likely to be dependent on the respective system mediating the encoding of this memory. [9] Such brain parts as the cerebellum, striatum, cerebral cortex, hippocampus, and amygdala are thought
Neuroplasticity is the process by which neurons adapt to a disturbance over time, and most often occurs in response to repeated exposure to stimuli. [27] Aerobic exercise increases the production of neurotrophic factors [note 1] (e.g., BDNF, IGF-1, VEGF) which mediate improvements in cognitive functions and various forms of memory by promoting blood vessel formation in the brain, adult ...
Body memory (BM) is a hypothesis that the body itself is capable of storing memories, as opposed to only the brain. While experiments have demonstrated the possibility of cellular memory [ 1 ] there are currently no known means by which tissues other than the brain would be capable of storing memories.
The amygdala is involved in memory consolidation, which is the process of transferring information that is currently in working memory into ones long-term memory. This process is also known as memory modulation. [7] The amygdala works to encode recent emotional information into memory.
