recent study involving nearly 7,000 British civil servants revealed
that the human brain functions will decline after entering the age of 45
years. These findings argue well as previous research that says that the decreased brain function at the age of 60 years.
Dr.
Michael Merzenich, professor emeritus from the University of
California, San Francisco United States, said the decline in brain
function tends to be slower in women than men due to hormonal
differences. But
if a woman has been through the menopause, will gradually slow the
cognitive decline is equivalent to a man entered the age of 65 years,
says Merzenich.
Food
and drug regulatory agency in the United States (FDA) will require the
