Any of you guys use prevagen,, the memory pills?
We’ve all seen the commercials for it.
Can you guys tell a difference using it??
I saw it for sale in the vitamin and supplement section and saw it was a tad pricey.
I wouldn’t mind spending it though if it does work.

I dont think so,I forget.

I think all supplements need FDA approval.

by the people who approved the jab?

Spoil-sport!

mostly in that they won't kill you right away , less so that they actually do you any good.

good is not tested

not immediate harm is the FDA primary concern

Gave it a fair trial. Tried it for 2 months. Did not notice any difference. Came to the conclusion that it was not worth the high price. Went back to making lists (for free...) to avoid forgetting things!

there is good data about cutting carbs , making sure you have 30 minutes of cardio a day with heart rate in the 120-150 range and doing some lifting , building muscle because muscle is actually an organ as much as it is to move.

also make sure to eat protein hard not to when you cut the carbs out as well as cruciferous vegetables like Broccoli and cabbage those vegtables help your liver to remove toxins

Liver toxicity and memory go hand in hand AKA black out drunk is just poisoning your liver so you don't store or access memory while the toxins in the blood stream are high.

even if your doctor puts you on some prescription start with the protein , very very low carb like no sugar , no bread , no noodles, very little rice infrequently. cardio and lifting.

I cut down a lot of carbs and drink lemon water mostly now.. I didn’t know about triglycerides.. just cholesterol .. didn’t know that unused carbs can plug up your arteries just as bad if not worse.

I’ll look into the stuff you guys suggested.

I stopped taking my Lipitor, brain fog went away and memory seems better

In the last 4 years I have had 2 "brain events"...Sub-dural hematoma in 2022 misdiagnosed by Mayo but I still survived, and a stroke in 2024.

During the first one they automatically put me on Lipitor despite cholesterol historically low, because "it will keep you healthy". I experienced memory loss, brain fog, etc. and so chose to go off Lipitor. Problems cleared up quickly.

After the second one they wanted me to go on Lipitor again. I told them of the problems I had with Lipitor. They offered a different statin and were very put off and disbelieving I was having any memory problems like with Lipitor. I went off the statins again and after a week or so everything was fine. I have not had any memory problems and my blood levels are perfect WITHOUT the statins which seem to have become a matter of routine when someone who is overweight and older has any health issues.

These are the experiences I have had with statins and I fully understand they may be different for others.

I do that and then forget the list.
