Brain Optimization

Brain Training: BrainHQ online

LIFTiD Neurostimulation was developed and designed to put all users in the mindset to boost their brain’s potential through mild electrical stimulation, thereby, over time, providing a brain training routine to improve focus, productivity, and memory. LIFTiD is as an alternative to chemical stimulants such as caffeine, sugar, and other performance enhancers. Use LIFTiD Neurostimulation once a day, for 20 minutes, and realize your potential within, without putting chemical stimulants into your body.

The brain’s sweet spot: How criticality could unlock learning, memory—and prevent Alzheimer’s

Neuroscience explores Alzheimer's and brain. Our brains may work best when teetering on the edge of chaos. A new theory suggests that criticality a sweet spot between order and randomness is the secret to learning, memory, and adaptability. When brains drift from this state, diseases like Alzheimer s can take hold. Detecting and restoring criticality could transform diagnosis and treatment.

Learning engages transient and sustained cellular mechanisms in the human brain

Protecting Your Brain from Stress, Part 1 This two-part series focuses on integrative treatments that can bring improved regulation to the stressed brain. Concepts from stress research, i.e., allostasis, allostatic load, and allostatic overload, are defined and referred to within the article’s chronic stress framework so as to enumerate treatments that mobilize allostatic systems to improve brain and psychological health, as well as physical health. The treatments advocated include natural health products to lower the intensity of emotional overwhelm and to reduce the pathophysiological harms to the brain and body. Other recommended treatments include diet, exercise, nature, meditation, sleep, the avoidance of substances, psychotherapy and/or social support, as well as an assortment of psychological and behavioral recommendations. The integrative approaches, such as those mentioned in this article, should serve as models of the kinds of interventions that can realistically and dramatically affect the course of chronic stress and prevalent medical diseases via allostatic brain mechanisms.

New ultrasound device can stimulate multiple brain networks

For the first time, a new ultrasound technique allows researchers to stimulate multiple locations in the brain simultaneously. This opens up new possibilities for treating devastating brain diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and depression in the future. The first picture taken of a person nowadays is usually an ultrasound scan in the womb. But the technology is capable of much more than
