[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 701356, member: 4152"] I think the basic health things can contribute to memory issues, especially not sleeping well. I take Topamax for migraine prevention and good grief...my memory took a big hit with that medication. So, I'm always very aware of anything else that might pile on. I do find the Source Natural Sublingual Melatonin helpful. I don't take too much because I never want to be groggy in the morning. I've recently been experimenting with taking 1 mg tablet around 8 p.m. and another around 10 p.m. and then I go to bed around 10:30 p.m. I only take a total of 2 mg. This seems to help me a little with inomnia and no sleepiness in the morning. Sleeping well is helpful. I also have found drinking a TON of water during the day helpful with energy and this helps a tiny bit with memory too. They say you should drink 1/2 your body weight in ounces of water. So, if a person weighed 150 pounds for example, they should drink 75 ounces of water every day! I don't know if you saw my post above, but my Difficult Child and our entire family LOVES PS 100 by Jarrow (soft gels in white bottle). It is a little expensive though. I find it cheaper at iherb website. Plus, they give you rebates if you keep ordering from them. I use it, my husband uses it, our Difficult Child uses it and friends now use it. It takes the edge off memory issues. You can read the reviews at iherb. Many have gotten improvement. I take one in the morning and one at bedtime. Some people start with that, and then are able to switch to just one a day. [/QUOTE]
