Fatigue stress accelerates brain decline
According to research, brain nerve cells begin to be composed in the mother's body from the fetus until the number of brain nerve cells increases rapidly at around two years old, and the brain gradually grows larger, and the development is completed before the age of 20. But as we age, brain cells will gradually die, and different from other body cells, dead brain cells will not be replaced by new cells. Human brain cells die every day at about 20 years old. By the age of 40, brain cell death speeds up to 200,000 cells eliminated every day. Together with busy work and life pressure, brain cell damage is accelerated. Many people feel that their brain power is not as good as before. In addition to pathological brain damage, the cause is complex and difficult to control, but the part that decays on its own, also known as nerve atrophy, is brain atrophy. It can be improved by proper exercise, good sleep, timely stress relief, and nutritional supplements. . Especially in recent years, scientists have discovered that a herbaceous plant that grows in the desert ─ Cistanche tubulosa can help improve brain memory and help brain nerves function more smoothly.

The population of dementia is increasing rapidly
In 2015, the International Dementia Association released a global report on dementia. On average, one person suffers from dementia every 3 seconds. The prevalence rate of dementia in Taiwan is 1 dementia for every 13 people over 65 years old, and 1 dementia for every 5 people over 80 years old. (According to the results of the dementia epidemiological survey conducted by the Taiwan Dementia Association commissioned by the Ministry of Health and Welfare). The Taiwan Dementia Association estimates that there are 12,658 people with dementia in Taiwan between the ages of 30 and 64. Together with the dementia population over 65, it is estimated that in 2016, Taiwan’s dementia population accounted for 1.09% of the total population in Taiwan, that is, every 100 people in Taiwan One of them is demented.
The difference between aging and dementia
Aging:
You may forget something suddenly, but you will remember it afterward.
If you do a memory test, you may not be able to fully remember the item under test.
Dementia:
I completely forget what I have said and done.
Cannot remember the items in the memory test, or even completely forget that I have done the test.

The power of plant extracts to improve memory Cistanche：
Cistanche, which grows in the desert of southern Xinjiang, is known as "desert ginseng." Scientists have discovered after years of research that Cistanche tubulosa can significantly improve memory and enhance learning ability. In addition to clinical treatment for dementia (Alzheimer’s disease and vascular dementia), it can also help healthy adults. memory. The most critical component of Cistanche is "Phenylethanoids", which has the following 4 main functions of the brain:
1. Protect nerve cells and inhibit nerve cell apoptosis:
The total glycosides of cistanche have been found in related cranial nerve research, which can effectively inhibit the death of nerve cells and improve the degeneration of nerve cells in the brain.
2. Promote the growth and repair of nerve cells:
Recent studies in Japan have found that Cistanche tubulosa has an activity similar to nerve cell growth factor, and it has been found in the nerve fiber cell experiment of chicken embryos that Cistanche tubulosa can promote the growth and repair of nerve fibers.
3. Increase the release of neurotransmitters in the brain:
Studies have found that the neurotransmitter acetylcholine in the brain of patients with dementia is reduced, causing the patient's memory and response-ability to be retarded, and Cistanche tubulosa can effectively inhibit the activity of acetylcholine, and It can maintain the concentration of acetylcholine in the blood and then exert the function of improving memory.
4. Relax the tiny blood vessels in the brain and improve cerebral blood flow:
As we grow older, many tiny blood vessels in the brain are prone to various changes, which will reduce the blood flow in the brain and fail to provide oxygen and nutrients to the brain cells in time. This will easily cause the death of brain cells and accelerate the degree of brain degeneration. From 2006 to 2009, many studies found that Cistanche tubulosa can relax blood vessels, increase blood flow in the brain, and help brain cells reduce death due to hypoxia or lack of nutrient delivery the large number of animal experiments have confirmed that Cistanche tubulosa can significantly improve memory ability. Research has also found that healthy adults consume 300 mg of Cistanche tubulosa essence per day for 6 weeks, which is effective for short-term memory, association, and discrimination. Both can be significantly improved, and at the same time, the concentration of acetylcholine as in the blood was found to be significantly reduced, indicating that Cistanche tubulosa can not only be used as a brain memory improver but also has a protective effect on brain nerves. It is very useful for people who are engaged in mental work and patients with memory loss and early-stage dementia, so that brain power and memory can be maintained in the best condition.
