The first documented use of "nootropic" in reference to substances purported to increase cognitive functions was by Corneliu E. Giurgea in 1972. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] When researching a new compound, Giurgea found a spectrum of effects that did not align with any psychotropic drug category, leading to his proposal of a new category and the concept ...
Poor diet in early childhood affects the number of neurons in parts of the brain. [1]Nutritional neuroscience (neuronutrition) is the scientific discipline that studies the effects various components of the diet such as minerals, vitamins, protein, carbohydrates, fats, dietary supplements, synthetic hormones, and food additives have on neurochemistry, neurobiology, behavior, and cognition.
The effects of psychedelics on neuroplasticity appear to be dependent on serotonin 5-HT 2A receptor activation, as they are abolished in 5-HT 2A receptor knockout mice. [7] Non-hallucinogenic serotonin 5-HT 2A receptor agonists, like tabernanthalog and lisuride, have also been found to increase neuroplasticity, and to a magnitude comparable to ...
Neuralink claims to have developed an implantable BMI device that is capable of recording and delivering full bandwidth data from the brain. The company hopes to use this technology to create a high-speed connection between the brain and digital technology, bypassing the need to type search queries or read the results.
The low-calorie supplement contains 5 types of collagen (types I, II, III, V, and X), is fortified with added vitamins C, B6, and zinc, and includes tryptophan for 8g of complete protein per serving.
The precursor compounds of L-arginine and L-citrulline can be found in foods that are high in protein (both compounds are amino acids), including beans, legumes, red meat, dairy products, fish ...
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 ...
Salk Institute researchers have identified a key protein that may help users of GLP-1 drugs such as Ozempic and Wegovy maintain muscle mass while losing weight.
