Key quotes from the article:

“Our models showed that selenium supplementation could increase neuron generation and improve cognition in elderly mice,” Dr. Walker said.

“We found that learning and memory deficits of stroke affected mice returned to normal when they were given selenium supplements.”

The water from the spring by by my grandmother’s house was tested by my sister, a water expert. It contained selenium.
My mother and my grandmother could remember everything when they were in their 80 and 90’s and could still drive a car.

Most people are deficient in selenium.

Especially in the midwest around the Great Lakes. Just not that much in the soils in this area. Supplementation is imporrant, selenium is a very important mineral.
