It depends on what you mean by helping mental clarity. Is it mental tiredness or something more like memory loss?
Low dose methylene blue has been shown to increase mental activity and reduce mental tiredness. Studies have shown it to be effective for memory improvrment even at low doses. Here is a link to one study: es_brain_oxidative_metabolism_and_memory_retention_in_rats http://www.biomedexperts.com/Abstract.bme/14724055/Methylene_blue_improv "Together the findings suggest that low-dose MB enhances spatial memory retention in normal rats by increasing brain cytochrome c oxidase activity." And: Extinction Memory Improvement by the Metabolic Enhancer Methylene Blue http://learnmem.cshlp.org/content/11/5/633.full: I dilute methylene blue to 0.1% and take two drops in the morning and two drops in the evening. That dosage is derived from a study done by researchers at Children's Hospital & Research Center Oakland: http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/08/080818101335.htm And from other sources. A company is trying to patent methylene blue as an Alzheimer's drug and their testing uses much larger doses, 65 mg three times daily: Another study for methylene blue and Alzheimer's: Rember for Alzheimer's: Methylene Blue's Comeback http://pipeline.corante.com/archives/2008/07/31/rember_for_alzheimers_me thylene_blues_comeback.php For memory loss some other good supplements are: * Vitamin B-3 (no flush type only) * Curcumin * Virgin coconut oil - Steve N From: Jeff Maahs <[email protected]> Subject: CS>OT Mental Clarity To: [email protected] Date: Monday, December 14, 2009, 4:32 PM I was wondering if anyone had something that's worked for them in helping with mental clarity. Increasing it actually. Jeff
