How To Prevent Memory Loss

Ever been a situation where forget stuffs to be done or said? "This was what i wanted to write down in the exam but it was all fog up there, damn!!  why couldn't I remember" Ever been in such a situation? Let's work together to prevent MEMORY LOSS

It’s common to experience a little brain fog as we age, but much like muscles, the more exercise you give your brain, the stronger it will be. And you don't need any crazy products or regiments to stay sharp: these simple lifestyle tips can keep your brain young for years.








Practice brain games, crossword puzzles, and memory exercises that stress verbal skills.






Enrich your diet with plenty of omega-3 fats, low-glycemic index carbohydrates (e.g., whole grains) and antioxidants. And consider eating several smaller meals throughout the day. Eating five small meals prevents dips in blood glucose levels, and glucose is the primary energy source for the brain.






 Take brisk walks each day and do stretching exercises. Increased cardio can make your brain actually grow, with more white matter and more neuron connections.









Stretching and relaxation exercises help keep anxiety in check. Stress causes the body to release cortisol, and cortisol has been found to shrink the memory centers in the brain, which results in impaired memory. Meditation has also been proven to substantially improve memory






Iron helps the neurotransmitters essential to memory function properly—and your body may be sensitive to low amounts. In one study, women low in iron missed twice as many memory questions as women with adequate levels.





Now this is unbelievable, but it does work.
Listening to the news while you read a magazine will impair your ability to recall either later. When you attend to multiple tasks, the brain switches processing to another region that retains fewer details. Focus on one task at a time to keep a perfect recollection of each one.







The plaque buildup caused by high cholesterol doesn’t only damage the veins of your heart: blockage of the blood vessels in your brain can deprive it of valuable nutrients, and cue memory problems. And it doesn’t take much plaque to block the tiny vessels; so check your cholesterol levels regularly.





Many prescription drugs can affect your memory, and the older you are, the longer drugs stay in your system. Drugs that can cause memory lapses include antidepressants, anti-anxiety drugs, beta-blockers, chemotherapy, Parkinson’s drugs, sleeping pills, painkillers, antihistamines, and statins.






THE POWER OF APPLE
… to keep the neurologist away. Apples have enough antioxidants to raise acetylcholine, which is an essential neurotransmitter for memory. The same antioxidants can also protect your brain from harmful free radicals.








Red wine contains the compound resveratrol, which may help ward off Alzheimer’s disease. Its ability to lower cholesterol levels also helps prevent that plaque buildup in your entire body, including your brain.(N.B. Be sure to buy the original red wine not adulterated and fake wines)


HMMMMMMM!!!!..........

Residents of Obukpa Community in Igboeze South LGA of Enugu State said the incident remains a shock to them as nothing of such has happened in the area before. The brothers have since been arrested.

Police Public Relations Officer of Enugu state command of the Nigeria Police Force, Ebere Amaraizu said the death of the government staff [names withheld] is sad. He disclosed that the command had commenced investigations into the alleged murder.

“It was gathered that the deceased was said to have met his untimely death when he allegedly visited his lady friend and a widow whom he has been relating with before his demise and in course of visiting the lady friend, was allegedly attacked by the two sons of the woman identified as Ekene and Chiebolam Eze with sticks and matchets having allegedly laid siege against the deceased for constantly having amorous dealings with their mother.

Nigerian women lead in skin bleaching – WHO

Nigeria women can overdo. However they have attained world record in Body Bleaching. HURRAY!!

The World Health Organisation, WHO, has said 77 percent of women in Nigeria use skin-lightening products, the world’s highest percentage. The figure compares with 59 percent in Togo, and 27 percent in Senegal.
The WHO report said the reasons for this are varied but most people said they use skin-lighteners because they want “white skin”.
WHO also said skin bleaching comes with hazardous health consequences. The dangers associated with the use of toxic compounds for skin bleaching include, blood cancers such as leukemia and cancers of the liver and kidneys, as well as severe skin conditions. It said hardcore bleachers use illegal ointments containing toxins like mercury, a metal that blocks production of melanin, which gives the skin its colour, but can also be toxic.
The report said in many parts of Africa, lighter-skinned women are considered more beautiful and believed to be more successful and likely to find marriage. It also said it is not only women who are obsessed with bleaching their skins. Some men too are involved in the practice.
* In extreme cases of skin bleaching, the skin can become multi-coloured and marred with inflammation or scarring.

WHO investigation said lightening creams are not effectively regulated in Nigeria where even roadside vendors sell tubes and plastic bags of powders and ointments from cardboard boxes stacked along sidewalks in market districts. Many of the tubes are unlabelled as to their actual ingredients.
Qatar based Al Jazeera also reported that business is booming for shops selling skin-lightening products. A trader said, “About 90 percent of my clients come asking for skin whitening products,” adding “I sell it to them and give advice on what product is best for them and how to use them.”

Although in her official biography, her date of birth reads 'May 25, 1965', Anunobi has denied being 48.

"I would like to state here, without mincing words, that am not 48 years, even my mother was not married to my dad as at 48 years ago, and she is even yet to be 60 years."

The question now is, how old is Evangelist Eucharia Anunobi? Why did she not just tell her fans real age?
