When our
skin is cut, the best we can do is to put a Band-Aid on it to keep the two
parts of the cut skin close to each other, we disinfect the cut to avoid
infection and then wait for our body to seal the cut that at most will result
in a simple scar, or when a bone of our skeleton brakes, all we do is to make
sure to position the two parts of the bone in the straight or closest to its
original position and either cast or bandage it as rigid as possible and then –
again – wait for our body to reattach the two parts of the bone together, here
the trick is double, i.e. make sure that the two parts of the bone are aligned
as close to the original alignment and wait 40 days for our body to have enough
time to repair with sufficient rigidity and resilience the bone fracture in
order to give it the same properties like it’s new (never fractured).
When it
comes to this identical ability of our body for the brain we have a specific
term in use since centuries, that’s neuroplasticity, or neuro is all that
relates to the organ named brain and plasticity that refers to its capacity to
reform itself around the injured (dead) part(s).
This is
another of the main reasons that made me want to give it a try with nootropics,
in fact as you can learn reading the website-articles I link below, this is one
(if
not the main) of
the very interesting effects of the nootropics that make me want to keep taking
– as I had said earlier – at least until the bottles I have will be empty.
This
decision is actually very related and connected to my idea that medicine is a
guess-science, simply because everyone has a different reaction to any
medication or supplement taken.
So while
the articles I found say that these nootropics help neuroplasticity, I surely won’t
know until I’ll have tried – very much like I won’t know if taking an aspirin to
get rid of my headache will be sufficient and successful.
