Most often, memory lapses occur in older people,who completely forget where they put their glasses, what they did in the recent past, or what they were going to do. But similar phenomena can occur in middle-aged people, and sometimes even among young people. Such incidents are attributed to fatigue, greater employment, and with the approach of fifty years of age, they see the first signs of approaching old age. Is it so?
Everyone remembers how surprised Dr. Watson,learning that Sherlock Holmes does not know basic things. He did not reflect on the fact that the earth revolves around the sun and never heard of the well-known Dickens. What did Holmes answer him? He compared the human brain with an empty attic, on which everyone would train whatever he wanted. A smart person will always keep him in order and will not litter with unnecessary trash. This information was simply not required by the great detective, and he did not clog his brain with it.
Remarkable, but modern science todayconfirms this theory. Scientists say the memory lapses over the years are not the inevitable consequence of age. It is difficult for a person to impede the flow of unnecessary information accumulating over the years. Think of the great scientists, whose distraction has already become common. It should be said about some other, external and internal factors affecting our brain and causing memory lapses. Alcohol is the enemy of our brain, the most disastrous effect on all its processes. If you are still young enough, do not abuse alcohol, but it happens that memory fails, perhaps these are the first signs of serious diseases. Constant stress, chronic fatigue, post-traumatic syndrome, diabetes mellitus, disorders in the cerebral circulation and various cardiovascular pathologies can give rise to memory lapses.
If they are single and very short-lived, notcause serious concerns and do not interfere with normal life, you can start with the usual ways to improve the functionality of brain processes. Treatment of memory loss must begin with a complete rejection of all bad habits, the formation of a balanced diet and proper treatment. If you try to avoid stress and other situations that cause severe chronic fatigue, the problem will soon disappear.
Памяти нужно помогать.The best exercise for the mind is the constant repetition of the “traversed” material. Refresh your memory with photos, letters, videos. Experts recommend to make a list of necessary cases the next day, and in the evening to consult on it. Going to bed, you can mentally scroll through all the events of the past day, stopping at the most important details. So they will remain in memory for a long time. To remember the name or phone number, you can resort to close associations for you. Constantly interested in life around you, events in the world, family affairs, it is not only exciting, but also very effective exercise for the mind.

New acquaintances will bring a lot of fresh emotions into your life and fill it with interesting and useful information.
