How not to get Old - Part II: The Brain

How not to get Old - Part II: The Brain In this second article in the ‘How not to get Old’ series, we look at the brain. Please note that I use the word “brain” and not “mind” and there is a good reason for this: a sound mind is a construct of a healthy brain. We cannot have a clear, alert mind without a healthy brain.

The Critical Role of Nootropics on Cortisol

The Critical Role of Nootropics on Cortisol Doing a spot of reading and research this morning when I came across the abstract (sorry, I don’t have access privileges to the full article) of a couple of very interesting studies. The first one showed that elevated cortisol (and aldosterone) completely negated the memory-improving effects of piracetam, oxiracetam and aniracetam.¹ Basically, mice (yes, I know that mice are not men, but still) were given oral treatment of cortico steroids and aldosterone and this inhibited the effects of nootropics.
