Herbal nourishment for memory and mental function.
Behavioral problems such as agitation and age-related cognitive decline include difficulty in concentration and confusion, lack of mental energy, and sometimes, depressive mood.
Some of these symptoms may be associated with not enough blood reaching the brain.
Anything that restricts blood or oxygen to the brain compromises its functioning.
Ginkgo has been shown in human and animal studies to be a cerebrovascular tonic, increasing short-term memory and alertness. It is believed that these results are due to increased blood supply.
Standardized Ginkgo, I believe, may be too harsh for small animals.
Ginseng has been shown to quiet the mind while, at the same time, increasing energy for learning, memory capacity, work performance, and general mental functioning.
