66. Memory Failure

A gross under-supply of oxygen to the brain will make a person stupid. The same gives memory failure as well.

If a person leads a sedentary life all the time, as it happens in the case of retired people, then, the blood circulation slows down. If this happens, the oxygen supply to the brain gets reduced, giving rise to memory failure.

The above situation is opposed to excellent memory, sharp thinking, briskness in a person, and a quick reflex.

The oxygen supply in an athlete will be very good, and that makes the person very smart. That is precisely why all those school students who play games get distinctions in the examination results.

However, if the oxygen inhalation goes beyond the brain’s tolerance limit, then that too will become dangerous. This can occur in those who continuously perform Marathon running.

To put a full stop to this ‘torture’, the brain appears to suddenly withdraw the production of red blood cells, and increase the production of white blood cells These two jointly give rise to blood cancer, Leukaemia.

Memory failure can be set right by:

(a) doing deep breathing exercise,

(b) moving around briskly so as to enhance good breathing,

(c) living in an environment with clean and fresh air,

(d) not covering the nose with blanket/comforter while sleeping,

(e) spending most of the day time in a cooler environment rather than being under hot sun, or near a furnace,

(f) eating green leafy vegetables that are rich in iron,

(g) avoiding the consumption of calcium-enriched foods,

(h) drinking about 2 L of water daily, and

(i) urinating liberally all the time (about 8–10 times) daily.
