And she says, spaghetti.
And then 10 minutes later,
What are we eating tonight?
Spaghetti.
So it's that obvious.
It's very obvious.
A person asks the same question multiple times and having zero clue that the information was provided to them.
Now, when that happens, and I've had many patients, many, many thousands of patients in that stage, then hippocampus must have shriveled.
This is not just, you know, depression anymore.
It's not just vision loss or air pollution or vitamin deficiency, although they can contribute.
All factors that could contribute.
Yeah.
Now, this is now a little bit more serious.
Your hippocampus may have shriveled by 20%, 30%, 40% because you're not registering the new information.
Hippocampus is the part of brain that grabs information and says, this information is worth keeping.
And
puts it in the file to be remembered for a future.
Like you had a baby recently and you remember everything about childbirth and what happened that day.
And if I ask you what happened that day, you will go on and on and on about every little detail what you did that day.
