Answers:
Gidday mate........ for memory loss try eating more foods rich in Vitamin B1 (thiamine) ie ~ brewer's yeast, whole grain breads and cereals, organic brown rice or quinoa (pronounced keen~wah), lean red meats, organic nuts, legumes such as peas, beans and lentils and potatoes..

Organic with the nuts and rices to avoid the nasty sulfites they use to "preserve" the commercial varieties which will upset sensitive bodies.................. actually, organic will always be better if you can afford it..

also take a multi B complex supplement including all the B's ie ~ B1, B2, B3, B5, B6 and B12 as they work best as a group.................. don't take any of the B complex of vitamins individually but rather as a whole group unless specifically told to by a nutritionally oriented physician or naturopath..

The need for B1 (and the B complex) increases when we are stressed, during illness and surgery.. B1 has beneficial effects on the nervous system and mental attitude and will also aid in digestion and keep nervous system, muscles and heart functioning normally........................ The B complex of vitamins will help bolster your system so as you can better deal with the everyday little dramas life presents for us..

It is a water soluble complex and as such our bodies can neither produce or store them.. Therefore we need to ingest them on a daily basis or suffer the side affects..

Things that will rob you of your precious B complex of vitamins are :- stress, eating too much protein, alcohol, eating too much tinned food, laxatives and diuretics, antiobiotics, antidepressants, penicillin, prednisone and aspirin, otc cold and flu medicines..

also, try to cut back on drinks such as caffeine, tea, sodas and soft drinks as they are all B complex thieves................ as well as being great at dehydrating you

also, an L-glutamine supplement taken 3 times daily with a meal will also bolster a healthy immune and nervous system and assist in maintaining muscle function.............. it also helps maintain the health of intestinal flora and thus is a digestive aid ........ Glutamine is a natural amino acid and a naturally occuring antioxidant and is brilliant for helping you to retain more information and recollecting particular thoughts..

Other nutrients which are said to enhance your memory and make you smarter are ~ Vitamine E, grapeseed extract, lipoic acid, Vitamin B3 (niacin), Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine), vitamin B12 (cobalamin),folic acid, choline, gingko biloba, gotu kola ........................ obviously none of them will turn you into Albert Einsteen but you'll surely start remembering more mate .................. take care of you ?
