Sydney researchers will test the effectiveness of a blend of three common Chinese herbs against memory loss and decreased brain functionality associated with old age. Pre-clinical animal testing indicates that results can include increased blood circulation to the brain, reduced cholesterol levels, and direct brain tissue stimulation for better mental performance.
