Smart nutrients for the performance of a lifetime -Source Naturals -
Our adult years are the time to reap the fruit of an active,
meaningful life – appreciated by family and friends who value our
experience and knowledge. For some, however, their later years
are clouded by a mental decline that erodes their capacity to enjoy
life. More of us are becoming apprehensive about the future
health of our minds. Will we still be able to communicate our

can alter the brain’s metabolism, which is
expressed by changes in perception and thinking,
behavior and mood.

A different strategy is used to replace the
neurons that are naturally lost throughout life:
nerve cells repair themselves and grow by extending
branches of nerve fibers called dendrites (from
the Latin word for tree). These are the communication
links with other neurons that form the circuitry
of the brain. A single neuron may be in contact
with up to a hundred thousand others! ...
