(BlackDoctor.org) -- Science has visual evidence of the brain cell growth process. Thanks to MRI technology, we can see learning centers in the human brain light up and witness the birth of neural pathways when we try something new. These signs of activity and growth are visible even in the elderly. Although you may learn new things more slowly as you get older, your capacity is largely unchanged. What's really exciting is that new experiences needn't be dramatic or life changing to have these effects.
(BlackDoctor.org) -- Ask the average person what they know about Alzheimer’s disease and they may answer that it happens in old age, it brings on senility and it is irreversible.

It may also be marked by changes in personality and behavior, including increasing anxiety, agitation and delusion.
(BlackDoctor.org) -- At 25, Tamiyka Koger was a perfectionist, juggling graduate school and a fulltime job with Chris Redfern, now an Ohio state representative. But all of the sudden, her head was about to explode and she couldn't perform the most basic tasks of a job she used to take pride in.
"I had headaches beyond belief," Koger said, "it was just unbearable pain."
Of course, she blamed stress.
Koger was determined to continue working, but after some convincing from
New Studies To Uncover The Cause Of Chronic Fatigue
(BlackDoctor.org) -- According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately four million Americans currently suffer from chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). The predominant symptom of CFS is a severe, consuming and relentless fatigue that persists even when patients receive adequate levels of rest. This fatigue is exacerbated by even the least amount of physical or mental exertion. Patients with CFS may also suffer from a combination of other symptoms including headaches, poor memory,
