I agree about the importance of forgetting. After all, I forgot who Michael Shermer was...and was not troubled at all by this loss of memory. Thus, I except the same phenomenon will soon occur in the near future. Therefore, I feel somewhat compelled to wish you well being now...while I remember to do so.

My memory is poor and has always been what holds my intellect back. Can feel it.

We know an enormous amount about how to keep the body super-fit, with exercise, nutrition, sleep. Surely there must be some regime for a super-fit brain, with enhanced cognition, memory and problem solving. Have we just not found what works yet?

Exercise the body’s skeletal muscles causes the release of neurogenic myokines from skeletal muscle, using tryptophan’s biochemical pathway, while lack of exercise is neurotoxic; exercise the mind by learning new things (crosswords are not going to do it), nutrition, 7-8 hours sleep, stop using screens at 10:30 pm, use desk lamps at night rather than ceiling pot lights; supplement with ~500-600 mg of “Magtein” type of magnesium L-threonate which crosses the blood brain barrier (not threonine), or magnesium bis glycinate, or a combination of the two, taken in three divided doses. Mg content in our food supply is very low; get your D3 hormone level to 52-80 ng/mL or 130-200 nMol/L in the blood. D3 is not a vitamin; it’s a hormone. Don’t use D2. Good idea to take 400 mcg vitamin K2 of the MK7 type, to preferentially shunt calcium into the bone and not into the arteries. These are optimal doses, whereas RDA is the bare minimum to sustain life. As such, they are not regulated. Your B12 blood result should be 500 picomol or higher. This is likely not the answer you were expecting. All science based from research done by a PhD in pharmacy.

Bad memories and nightmares are a huge problem for some people.

Proper nouns make no sense! Thank you for confirming this 🤣 I thought it was just me who struggled with them

A single cell is like a wheel of films in the form of molecules and each film of molecules inside a single cell are put in order and coded with an electrical sensor that connects the cell body to other cells while forming single rolls because of this the body five senses can only record information simultaneously in rolls without breaking space in between time this includes images, smell, feelings hearing and tasting as well as visual except for breathing which is associated with the heart, you just have to try to keep up with the next breath. The same with neurons and brain cells and learning cells and memory cells.

Id like to know why I know hundreds of lines of Beatles songs, but I can’t just say them. I find it difficult to memorize Shakespeare, let alone be someone who can recite pieces of poetry. What is it about music, even with music we don’t like, that it seems to be so easy to remember the words? I don’t think that rhyming is a factor.
