Question 1

what can be done to make my brain work faster and how to keep my body fit?

Accepted Answer

It all boils down to: Clean diet, adequate rest, activity (exercise) and stress minimization. Improvement in any or all of these will improve brain function and overall fitness. Regular vigorous activity improves well being which improves mental acuity. Following any holistic exercise regimen will do the trick. Stable sleep patterns and meditation will boost awareness & overall brain function.

Question 2

how does nuvigil work (in the brain/body)?

Accepted Answer

Armodafinil is a : eugeroic medication. Its exact mechanism of action (MOA) is unknown. It acts on the brain's arousal &amp; alertness mechanisms. (They're not the same.) That's about the most I can tell you if you have no further knowledge of neurophysiology, neurochemistry or neuropharmacology. Any further discussion would be so oversimplified that it wouldn't really explain anything.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

Question 4

can haldol (haloperidol) decanate still work and function in your system after a month has passed from initial injection. does it have permanent effects on brain?

Accepted Answer

Haldol (haloperidol) decanoate: Haldol (haloperidol) decanoate is much longer acting than oral or IV forms of haldol (haloperidol).  It is usually given about every 3-4 weeks, and is active for that time period.  Long-term movement disorders (tardive dyskinesia) can result with haldol (haloperidol), and can be irreversible.  Risk of this must be weighed against risk of psychotic symptoms without the medication.

Question 5

would a brain pacemaker alleviate pressure on the health system?

Accepted Answer

No: Brain or spinal cord pacemakers are useful to help control involuntary nerve/muscle spasms in some people. They emit small electric impulses that help control abnormal nerve impulses, just like how a heart pacemaker helps to regulate abnormal heart rhythms. Pressure on the brain, per se, is usually the result of some obstruction to spinal fluid.

Question 6

is there a supplement to reduce heavy metals in the body,(due to drugs)naturally and without side effects on brain and health?what it have to contain?

Accepted Answer

Chelation therapy: The entire concept of chelation therapy, is controversial as far as allopathic doctors (MD'S &amp; DO's) are concerned.  The idea that minute amounts of toxic heavy metals can somehow be bound out of the body without affecting other minerals &amp; nutrients seems to be a chemically far-fetched idea. Your body has its own NATURAL approach to chelation &amp; I believe in Mother Nature as being the BEAST!

Question 7

which body system does brain tumor affect besides nervous system?

Accepted Answer

Depends on type: The type and location of the brain tumor may affect other body systems. For example, a pituitary tumor is a classic tumor that arises in the pituitary fossa. It can have profound effects on the endocrine system as it diplaces normal pituitary function. If the tumors are endocrine active-it can afffect growth or blood pressure. Tumors near motor areas can affect the musculoskeletal system.

Question 8

does resveratrol work to circulate blood better, increase immune system and brain function?

Accepted Answer

Not exactly: Reseveratrol is an anti-oxidant which may help in lowering bad cholesterol and reducing the risk of blood clots.   It does not boost immune function or brain function as far as research has demonstrated.

Question 9

how does clomid (clomiphene) work to "trick the brain" into thinking the levels of estrogen in the body are low?

Accepted Answer

Receptors: Clomid (clomiphene) binds to the estrogen receptors. Normally estrogen binds to those receptors. But the Clomid (clomiphene) does not bind in the same way and so the end result is that the receptors are not as active. And so the body then does not think there is a lot of estrogen around so the brain makes more fsh to grow eggs and more more estrogen.
