Kip, I think you forgot to remind everyone that this needed OT in the topic line. Trust me, if I could remember 100 or so phone numbers I wouldn’t have a problem remembering the OT. My previous near perfect memory would also be able to remember that some newsreaders change the OT. Carole

Oh, Tooo-oooom…! Lookey here! This one’s gonna’ put a big fat ole’ smile on your cute l’il face when you digest the great news! Seems as tho’ we can *regain* lost cognitive function – and the remedy is cheap, fun (once you get into the habit) and something we can do almost anywhere without special equipment…*exercise*!!!! Aw, Tom…is that a big ole’ happy tear I see runnin’ down your jolly red cheek? Golly gee, you’re such a soft-hearted l’il guy!

Colcombe SJ, Erickson KI, Raz N, Webb AG, Cohen NJ, McAuley E, Kramer AF. Beckman Institute, University of Illinois, Urbana 61801, USA. BACKGROUND: The human brain gradually loses tissue from the third decade of life onward, with concomitant declines in cognitive performance. Given the projected rapid growth in aged populations, and the staggering costs associated with geriatric care, identifying mechanisms that may reduce or reverse cerebral deterioration is rapidly emerging as an important public health goal. Previous research has demonstrated that aerobic fitness training improves cognitive function in older adults and can improve brain health in aging laboratory animals, suggesting that aerobic fitness may provide a mechanism to improve cerebral health in aging humans. We examined the relationship between aerobic fitness and in vivo brain tissue density in an older adult population, using voxel-based morphometric techniques. METHODS: We acquired high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging scans from 55 older adults. These images were segmented into gray and white matter maps, registered into stereotaxic space, and examined for systematic variation in tissue density as a function of age, aerobic fitness, and a number of other health markers. RESULTS: Consistent with previous studies of aging and brain volume, we found robust declines in tissue densities as a function of age in the frontal, parietal, and temporal cortices. More importantly, we found that losses in these areas were substantially reduced as a function of cardiovascular fitness, even when we statistically controlled for other moderator variables. CONCLUSIONS: These findings extend the scope of beneficial effects of aerobic exercise beyond cardiovascular health, and they suggest a strong solid biological basis for the benefits of exercise on the brain health of older adults.

So? People are NOT locked up until they die for cognitive impairment. This is the most insane idea you have come up with yet. In a civilized society, hardly anyone is "locked up" for life. You would have to be a murderer or mentally ill beyond all help, and even then, you may get out. Totally improbable. Sylvia

Cognitive impairment doesn’t mean you need to be locked up. It means you need to make some adjustments.

You’re over-reacting pretty dramatically, Tom. Lots of people have cognitive deficits that show up only on careful examination… and they generally are no more than a minor nuisance where they’re noticable to the "sufferer" at all. I have a diagnosed "severe" short-term memory deficit of a certain limited sort. It’s frustrating as hell fairly often, but I live with it just fine, and for the most part, there are simple and effective ways to avoid having it ruin my life. It’s nothing to warrant "lockup", not even temporarily while I’ve sorted out how to live with it, let alone "until I die".

So what are you saying .. ? Since there is a VERY HIGH percent of people with restless leg .. and the incidence of anemia is far LESS than the number of people WITH restless leg . DUE TO the ‘Framington Heart Study ‘ which found the odds of BEING anemic against the odds of being .. iron replete .. ANEMIA falling far SHORT of those with iron excess .. then simple mathematics will tell you .. something .. ain’t .. right .. in .. Denmark. Iron destroys tocopherol .. which makes one anemic. Same anemia the astronauts .. get .. an iron loading anemia. NOT ‘iron deficient anemia’ but an anemia in which the body cannot / will not use the iron ‘on board’ and when one takes the simple blood tests .. one ‘appears’ TO BE .. anemic and they give you iron which kills you.
