Caffeine appears to have an enhancing effect on memory consolidation as well, suggests a study published right on the heels of last week’s study.     Published on January 12, 2014 in Nature Neuroscience, caffeine was shown to have an immediate boost on memory. 140 participants of this study were able to remember and recall images that they were shown 24 hours later better if they were consuming caffeine while looking at the initial image.

Intuitive Medicine, Medical Reports, Uncategorized / By

Last year I wrote an article for fellow coffee and tea lovers, explaining the positive value of caffeine for brain health (reducing dementia risk and progression) and even skin promoting properties (decreasing the incidence of basal cell carcinoma!)   But many people still shy away from caffeine because of concerns over its effect on the heart.

Female Health, Healthy Mindframe, Intuitive Medicine, Medical Reports / By

  A new study, published on Nov 15, 2013 in Biological Psychiatry, shows that probiotics might be more aptly named psychobiotics for their mind and mood enhancing effects.   The latest statistics estimate that about one in every ten Americans now takes an antidepressant, and antidepressants are the third most prescribed form of medication.   Whether because of personal preference, unwanted side effects, cost or other reasons, there are many folks looking for alternative, holistic solutions to treating depression and anxiety. Natural supplements like St. John’s Wort, Maca Root, Valerian, 5-HTP, GABA, and holistic therapeutic modalities such as acupuncture, massage,
