Memory Protein Fades With Age

Don’t be ridiculous. I’m 60 and I can remember everything I ever...uh...what was the question again?

[freeagle]

What did you say?

[freeangel]

I’d be happier if I could replace that “protein” by eating it instead of exercising. :)

[Old Sarge]

A protein. I wonder if that means a protein supplement will be useful...

Protein means eating animals. I’m for it.

[Red Badger]

I expect that as a result of this study there will be tons of radio and TV ads blathering on about their ‘new’ product that has oodles of this protein for your consumption..............

I’m 61 and remember my first day of kindergarten but I can’t seem to locate my keys.

[Jeff Chandler]

What was I going to write?

[Red Badger]

I remember mine, too, but I can’t find my glasses............oh, they’re on top of my head!.................

[Jack Hydrazine]

Ormus stops it.

[henkster]

I never claimed to have “photographic” memory, but I’ve always had an ability to remember just about everything I’ve read, and most of what I’ve seen and heard. My friends are astounded with my ability to recall details of seemingly insignificant events from 30 years ago. I can still remember the Chicago Cubs roster and lineup from 1984, and most of the Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl XII championship roster.

However, at age 53, I am noticing that while my long term memory of those long ago events remains pretty much intact, my ability to process short-term memory into long term memory has declined. Not much, but it is noticeable.

[Bobalu]

I can remember anything...even if it didn’t happen.

[Gamecock]

It seems to me that, uh. I’ll have to get back to you.

[Red Badger]

Those things that interested you from long ago were permanently stored, and strongly so. Those bonds will fade over time as well, but will take longer to do so.

Short-term memory fades quicker because the necessary protein is less abundant to facilitate it............

[Red Badger]

Ormus or IMUS?................

[Jack Hydrazine]

Ormus.

[bgill]

If RbAp48 is short for “roast beef and pork” then bring it on.

[Red Badger]

Ormus makes you remember. Imus makes you not want to.............

[Jack Hydrazine]

ROFLMAO! Now why was I laughing?
