I read a book about Dep. several years back. I think it was called, "Dep, The Life Extension Drug" or something along those lines. The book was profoundly scientific, composed of double blind, placebo controlled, studies, ( sometime crossover studies) in which Dep. by itself or in conjunction with other neurotropic drugs improved both Parkinsons and Altzheimer's patients. Even more fascinating and relevant to me was the life enhancing and life extending effects of Deprenyl. There were some mice studies that seemed world-shaking in their implications for life extension. And yet, altho this was several years ago, I have not heard much more about this. I don't know if these studies were flawed, not replicated or replicatable, or just got lost in the noise of other discoveries. I am personally interested in anything that may increase intelligence, mood, effectiveness, and longevity. I take supplements and a number of "smart drugs/nutrients" from Life Extension Foundation and other sources. I am a 41 year old male, in excellent health, highly compliant with meds/vitamins. Do you think I would qualify for the study? How do I apply? Thanks for this highly appropriate and intriguing posting.
