It won’t be as noticable as you think. It will be a subtle short term improvement and more of a long term memory loss prevention.

You need to have your hormones checked and balanced because they greatly effect memory and regular doctors dont do this….the resources below… the effects of this are immediate when done right

Slowly! Take 4 Omega 3 fish oil supplements*, daily: (certified free of mercury) it is best if consumed with an antioxidant, such as an orange, or its FRESHLY SQUEEZED juice.

If vitamin E is added, it should be certified as being 100% from natural sources, or it may be synthetic: avoid it, as with the B vitamins, should you decide to take them. Vitamin and health food stores are good sources, because they specialise in this area, and have a high turnover, so their products are less likely to be old.

Memory improvement is addressed in considerable detail, with many weblinks, in section 41, at http://www.ezy-build.net.nz/~shaneris... Playing certain games, regularly, can improve memory. PUZZLES, ETC. http://www.brainbashers.com/index.php & http://www.everydayhealth.com/longevity/mental-fitness/brain-exercises-for-memory.aspx?xid=nl_EverydayHealthEmotionalHealth_20081222 Many more free games are shown in sections 0, & 16, at ezy build. I am informed that the recent Nintendo games console has some for improving memory, so you may wish to ask your retailer. Google: “nootropics”. The supplements, DHEA & Phosphatidyl Serine are some worth trying. Although ginkgo biloba has also been recommended, there are mixed reviews.

Lecithin* (phosphatidyl choline). A phospholipid found mostly in high-fat foods. It is said to have the ability to improve memory and brain processes. Lecithin is necessary for normal brain development. Lecithin capsules are available, but many people prefer the soft lecithin granules. These are a nice addition to fruit juice smoothies, adding a thicker texture. Lecithin is oil-based, and it gets rancid easily. It should be refrigerated (from health food stores).

From what I’ve read its a long term supplements that people start seeing tangible results from 3-6 months down the line … some see results sooner … but 3-6 months is the general consensus.

That being said, if you’re looking for something to take WITH your Omega3 supplements (NOT replace), then below is a list of some of the more popular memory / focus / concentration / attention improving products. You can find them in local health food stores and the internet.

Focus Fast is stimulant free and contains the most ingredients.
Focus Factor is the most popular and sells the most (they advertise the most, meaning they make the most)
Vivimind is the newest product on the market
