Please include me if anybody finds information about
maintaining intelligence or youth through forms of
drugs.
One item that caught my interest is that there
seems to be a correlation between IQ and neural transmission
speed. Thus if anybody knows anything about increasing
this speed using medications and the like let me know. I
heard that the myelineation process that occurs on some
of our neurons (which speeds up certain types of long axons)
tapers off at around 20 and that it is caused by hormones no
longer being produced. Any leads?
