People-mold and suicide [was: Re: men-mold and suicide]

[Guest guest]

Because the topic of Neurogenesis is bigger in mainstream Science...especially

regarding Neurodegenerative diseases...more is being learned about what

contributes to Neurogenesis...even dietary things such as Blueberries, for

instance.

A site I have not checked lately, but which has alot of research on this topic

is:

huntingtonslighthouse

If anyone is motivated to regenerate their neurons, it would be Huntington's

patients! This is why I found it...and that a study of persons with Chronic

Fatigue Syndrome, found the Huntington's protein over-expressed...whatever that

means.

I even saw some promising discoveries about Alzheimers on that site, before it

made any major press.
