Pathway for synthesis and metabolism of serotonin. In similar studies in rats, life extension was produced by giving oxytocin alone. Low acetylcholine levels contribute to the forgetfulness and lack of ability to concentrate which often occurs in old age. The cholinergic nervous system also controls the sensory input; too little acetylcholine and you are easily […]

Norepinephrine (NE) is another of the brain’s arsenal of neurotransmitters, important in primitive drives and emotions like sex and in memory and learning. When the level of NE in the brain is too low, people become depressed and their immune systems do not function normally. (That’s because NE can cause the brain to release growth […]

Deaner® is a prescription drug which is available in the United States. We have observed 300 milligrams per day of Deaner® remove all visible lipofuscin age pigment (liver spots) from the skin of a man in his mid-60s. After a few months, his age spots had faded appreciably and were completely gone in about two […]

PIC HERE Because of the toxicity of high concentrations of oxygen (via free radical mechanisms), hyperbaric oxygen (higher than normal atmospheric pressure) should be used with great caution. In very short repeated exposures it is possible that free radical destroying enzymes, such as SOD, may be induced to higher levels, thus increasing the patient’s overall […]
Hydergine® (made by Sandoz), a prescription drug, can prevent a considerable amount of the damage caused by free radicals in the brain. It is a very powerful antioxidant. It is useful in older persons who have a degree of cerebral hypoxia (insufficient oxygen), in preventing birth defects resulting from inadequate oxygen to the fetal brain […]
