Scientists discovered that sleep deprivation damages a key brain circuit responsible for social memory, making it harder to recognize familiar individuals. In laboratory studies, caffeine restored communication between neurons in this pathway and reversed the memory deficits caused by lost sleep. The effect was remarkably targeted, helping the impaired circuit recover without overstimulating normal brain function.



Ginko?
I thought Ginkgo had no proven health benefits? I’m keeping an eye on Lion’s Mane Mushroom though.
Screw the ginkgo supplements, plant a ginkgo tree instead. They’re cool.
Now this I can get behind. As a coelacanth I am unsurprisingly quite fond of living fossils.
Could be. I only remember ginkgo claims from 30 years ago and since it never crossed my path I haven’t looked into it.
