Back To The Future!: Old Drug Provides New Benefits In Fight Against Alzheimer’s
john rylands reading room enclosure manchester england


Retro Approach To New Info Pays Off:
In the field of research, The New rules the roost. What’s old is considered obsolete.

And nowhere is this more obvious than the search for cures to diseases.

Both The How & The Why seem so complex, the Solution must be something supercomputer-complex, & supercomputer-new, also.

Well, in a strange turn of events, an English team took the recent trend of Inflammation being implicated in many diseases, including Alzheimer’s,

And ran with it, back to a 2,000+ year-old fix that looks like the start of a new cure…

Now We Know Why Vegetarians Sound So Dumb & Dizzy. It’s Because Creatine Boosts All Different Kinds Of Brain POWAH!

Not All Substitutes Are Equal:
All cheekiness aside, we just did a post on the sexy people over at Eater’s test of the newest vegetable-only burger, by Impossible Foods.

But one of the ideas we raised at the end was: Maybe it tastes close now, maybe even identical in the future,

-But does it give you the same-or-better Nutrition when you take everything into consideration?

Well, one of Red Meat’s components is a salt called Creatine. And sciency-researchers are finding out some very interesting brain-stuff about its new best friend…

Oh Pot, Is There Nothing You Can’t Make Better? -Marijuana’s THC Removes Alzheimer’s Junk From Brain

Reefer Madness Perhaps Not So Mad After All:
Now I know the stoner-crowd has a rep for being a bunch of hippie-dropouts who will use just about any pseudoscience available to defend their habit.

Because they want their drugs and that’s all there is to it. -Munchies be damned.

Well buckle-up Amanda Bynes, because !SCIENCE! just dropped one of the dankest jams in-favor of THC since the invention of the cannabinoid-receptor 600 million years ago.

Digital Drugs: Thync’s Smartphone-Driven Relaxer Brings More Serious Science To The DIY Electric Brain-Hacking Set

For a little while now, people have been hacking their own brains with something called tDCS, or electrodes on the scalp, trying to enhance their mood and mental functioning.

-But the potentially-dangerous bro-science practice has had spotty results, until now.

Because a company called Thync has pooled a team of experts to change all that.

When their engineers & doctors looked at all the different effects and the conflicting studies surrounding the noggin-zaps, from improvements on…

Your Brain May Be Sleep-Deprived But At Least That Morning Coffee Helps You Remember Why

With all the recent bad news about sleep-problems being more serious than we thought before, here’s a bit of good news:

Coffee may be helping your brain in ways we didn’t previously know.

In this instance, a group of about 160 non-coffee-drinking adults were given pills while studying a series of images. One group got caffeine in those pills, and the other got placebos.

It turns out the caffeine group did noticeably-better on a certain type of deep-memory test 24 hours later…

Sherlock Doesn’t Need To Know The Earth Goes Round The Sun And Neither Should You. -Because Your Brain Forgets On-Purpose
scumbag brain meme remembers face not name



John: […]Or that the earth goes around the sun.
Sherlock: Oh God, that again! It’s not important!
John: Not important? It’s primary school stuff! How can you not know that?
Sherlock: Well, if I ever did, I’ve deleted it.
John: “Deleted it”?
Sherlock: Listen. This is my hard-drive, and it only makes sense to put things in there that are useful. Really useful. Ordinary people fill their heads with all kinds of rubbish, and that makes it hard to get at the stuff that matters! Do you see?

Well it turns out that high-functioning-sociopath Sherlock! & your brain have something in-common.

For the first-time, researchers have discovered that it has a Protein, named after one of the world’s most awesome swordsmen –or cats as the case may be,

That purposely-destabilizes synapses between some neurons in your brain,

Scientists, even the great ones at MIT are now poking their greasy mechanic’s fingers through the Matrix into our very souls.
