I tried the link but never got anything to come up. I can tell you that if your blood sugar starts to rise but can't get into the cells your brain goes to sleep. At least thats my situation. Then I'm doing well to remember my name.
The ability of carbohydrate to fuel the brain isn't happenig and neither are you.

just put me in the detergent aisle of any supermarket and see me come to a standstill.......
on the other hand intellectual decision making is easy, I know where I stand: most of the people here seem to have definitive views and ideas too........ so decisions that involve action/movement are the problem?? can't access the article, so maybe I'm off track...... Lindy |

seems dopamine is necessary for decision making...among many other things. so - to go extremes w/ this; fretting (stupid stress) over the mundane - can cause -or at least contribute to -- Parkinson's! looks like another chicken/egg-first dilema! |

Well, I'm going undercover. I changed my avitar. I got this unsolicited contact (something about this person liking blondes). I should have responded, "Hondey; you can be one, too." I am nearly all gray now - and would be if I didn't streak my hair.
Enough of the cosmetology lesson. Yes, I have trouble making decisions. I make one, then think about it and wish I had said this or not done that. Not what I had to do when was a principal! That's probably why I have 5 certifications (one being general science). I loved life science - and should have gone on to do something in biology. Rosebud, we ade a decision a long, long time back to write a book together. I'm preparing for that - going to start winding my advocacy work enough so we can do that. Now folks, OUR book will be very unique - because WE are unique. Trouble is, we can't decide which theme we want to take and run with (I knowo - "never end your sentence with a preposition" - sigh - still a teacher.) Peg |
