Nature seldom wastes time or energy.

2) The question of reduced circulatory flow to the brain is one that I plan to investigate at some future date by testing an extract of the common garden plant *vinca minor* or lesser periwinkle. Seems an excellent vasodilator within the brain and surprisingly safe. It is called vinpocetine and costs less than ten bucks for a month's supply.
I once a while tried vinpocetine for about six months and I can tell the difference in a couple of weeks. There are some studies, I remember, one of them was that NFL folks used it for treating concussion induced brain injuries with good results. I am going to add it back again...
