Study identifies fish oils impact on cognition and brain structure
August 17th, 2011 in Health

Researchers at Rhode Island Hospital's Alzheimer's Disease and Memory Disorders Center have found positive associations between fish oil supplements and cognitive functioning as well as differences in brain structure between users and non-users of fish oil supplements. The findings suggest possible benefits of fish oil supplements on brain health and aging. The results were reported at the recent International Conference on Alzheimer's Disease, in Paris, France.

Greetings! My wife and I have been perusing your site for a week or so and Cupid's Poisoned Arrow is on order. We are both nearing 60 years of age, and, while I'm writing in my own voice, she will be looking over my shoulder at all times. In this initial post I wanted to comment on two topics I haven't seen much about on the site: qigong and aging. For the past several years our sex life had tapered down to a very small and forlorn entity. Things were not looking very hopeful. I was finding it harder to get erections and she was suffering from vaginal dryness and pain during intercourse.
