Guest guest Posted July 11, 2000 Report Share Posted July 11, 2000 From what I have read about them they are a sign of aging and perhaps oxidation in the body....I think I remember reading that eating hydrogenated oils can cause them....I'm trying to remember...I read something about how to get rid of them...antioxidants? I wish I could remember everything I have read. Sorry folks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 11, 2000 Report Share Posted July 11, 2000 Hi Vilik, I looked up " lipofuscin " and " herbs " on Google and got this site that looked good: http://www.egregore.com/diseases/agespots.html There were other listings as well. I haven't gotten any in recent years, but I did get one in the past. J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 12, 2000 Report Share Posted July 12, 2000 Vilik, As friends I don't have to convince you that you should pay attention to this because **I** am talking: " age " spots, liver spots, etc., are lipofuscin deposits. And, they do damage in the portion of the brain called the " substantia niger " before they show up on the skin. The substantia niger is the part of the brain where dopamine is manufactured. lipofuscin kills dopamine producing cells here, and the result is called " Parkinsonism. " Get it out of you! You can clean lipofuscin out of your system the fastest by taking a drug called " Lucidril. " It's generic name is " centrophenoxine. It easily passes the BBB (blood-brain barrier) and breaks down into an immediate precursor to acetylcholine, a primary neurotransmitter. And, it sucks the lipofuscin out of you! It doesn't have bad side efects, so get some! Forget your skin!! Get that stuff ou of your brain! It's cheap and you can order it from England. About $15 a month. P.S.: I'm glad you rejoined the list. Newbies don't know you were here when we first happened. But, I will never forget. You are my favorite critic. Now, SHUT UP and stop criticising me! jim Vilik Rapheles wrote: > > Hi Gang, > > I has a great outpouring of info when I asked for help concerning > the spot on my cheek.

Guest guest Posted July 12, 2000 Report Share Posted July 12, 2000 Been searching on the net for Lipofuscin and Lucidril - there is a lot of very interesting info. Is Lucidril something that you think we all should be taking? Or, is it recommended as one begins approaching 60? Or, wait for " liver " spots to appear or wait for signs of senility? Does anyone have any info of it being used for Alzheimer patients? http://www.globalhealthtrax.org/12724 http://ghtonline.com/office/puretechconcepts ......................................................... iWon.com http://www.iwon.com why wouldn't you? .........................................................

Guest guest Posted July 12, 2000 Report Share Posted July 12, 2000 Jim, Am interested in getting rid of nasty " substantia niger " and willing to investigate lucidril. However, I'm at present exploring a path of no drugs, no supplements... just simple natural methods. So I'm wondering where this yucky stuff comes from, and how to flush it out without drugs...or perhaps how to prevent it in the first place. Oh we had fun when this list started! And I must say, it has grown into a most impressive community in terms both of intellect and caring. Kudos to you King Jim! Your court jester, ~^^V^^~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 12, 2000 Report Share Posted July 12, 2000 I have chosen to include Lucidril as part of my supplement regimen. My doctor also recommends it. He is a life extension/longevity specialist. The thing that sets him apart in his style of practice is that his specialty looks at a host of hormones & neurohormones before prescribing HRT. Which is why they have such good results with very little adverse anything. I was recuperating from death's door due to congestive heart failure. So, the idea of actually regenerating my body was appealing. Now, I feel wonderful, and it is still appealing to stay at the peak of health I can manage to pay for. But, unless you have mucho bucks, it is the only hobby you can afford. If health and happiness aren't worth spending money on, what is? jim & Joyce Steele wrote: > > Been searching on the net for Lipofuscin and Lucidril - there is a lot of > very interesting info. > Is Lucidril something that you think we all should be taking?

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2000 Report Share Posted July 14, 2000 Dear Jim. I am nor familiar with Lucidril. Could you give me a brief udate on what it does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 14, 2000 Report Share Posted July 14, 2000 , Lucidril breezes by the BBB and breaks down into DMAE in the brain, where it is needed. Phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylserine, DMAE and other precursors to acetylcholine do not easily get past the BBB. Other than supplying DMAE, Lucidril itself is rather benign. I started taking it when I began taking piracetam to protect my brain from hypoxia. If one takes any of the pyroglutamate analogs on a regular basis will get nervous, edgy & tense if they don't also supplement with acetylcholine precursors. Taken alone Lucidril still has a " mind clearing " effect, due to the increased acetylcholine, though milder than if take with piracetam or, my favorite, pramiracetam. I got on this regimen after reading Smart Drugs & Nutrients I & II. When I had my first consult with the longevity specialist he said he would have precscibed them if I wasn't already taking them. jim FAMANSON@... wrote: > > Dear Jim. > I am nor familiar with Lucidril.

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2000 Report Share Posted August 5, 2000 Wong, I don't believe Lucidril is available n the US. I usually buy mine from http://www.qhi.co.uk but when they were out I ordered from http://wwwnubrain.com who was also out, but they finally shipped me some last week. Enjoy the new toys!

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2000 Report Share Posted September 28, 2000 Liver spots are lipofuscin, a yuchhy brown lipid. WHen they show on the skin they are ALREADY IN THE BRAIN! They contribute to destruction of neurons and, if I remember correctly, correlate to Parkinson's destruction of the cells in the substantia niger where dopamine is produced. If I had liver spots, which I don't, I would take Lucidril (centrophenoxine), which I do. Among other things, lucidril protects the substantia niger from damage & clears lipofuscin out of the body. Centrophenoxine easily crosses the BBB and breaks down into DMAE, which does not easily cross the BBB. DMAE is one of the best precursors of acetylcholine, a primary neurotransmitter for fast synaptic responses. DMAE is concentrated from fish liver oils. I prefer most things natural, but this is one of the nootropics I found in Smart Drugs & Nutrients I & II. If it is important to you, this IS a pharmaceutical in some respect. I take it, because it is probably the best supplementary source that prevents damage to the dopamine producing cells! jim ----- For every human problem, there is a neat, simple solution; and it is always wrong -- H.L.
