Symptomatic treatment for memory loss. Memory is a psychological process. It is people’s impression of what they have experienced and happened. It is processed and stored in the brain, and can be retrieved and recalled when needed. Adult memory changes with age. This is a physiological change and a normal aging of memory. In addition, memory is also related to physical health conditions, such as brain tumors, diabetes, alcoholism, hypothyroidism, neurosyphilis and other diseases that can cause memory decline. At the same time, memory also has a very important relationship with mental health. Long-term exposure to social pressure, depression, low self-esteem, anxiety and other psychological states can also cause memory impairment. Memory loss is not exclusive to the elderly. In general outpatient clinics, we often see many young patients complaining of memory loss problems such as being unable to remember things and forgetting things. The usual way doctors diagnose and treat these patients is to give some nootropic drugs, but because they are not symptomatic, the effect is not good. Memory loss often puts patients into a state of anxiety and tension, and depression is also the cause of patients' inability to concentrate, manifested by decreased concentration. The emergence of these symptoms increasingly aggravates the patient's inferiority complex, but such patients often only complain of memory loss and avoid emotional problems. The problem of memory loss caused by psychological factors is not difficult to solve. The key is to identify the cause and prescribe the right medicine. Doctors and nutrition experts from the Department of Neurology and Psychology of Beijing Friendship Hospital who are engaged in special research suggest that patients with memory loss should pay attention to the following points in life: 1. Adopt an active and healthy lifestyle and live a regular life. 2. Carry out self-regulation correctly and pay attention to maintaining an optimistic mood and positive attitude. Especially in the face of stressful events in life, you must learn to reduce stress on your own and maintain physical and mental health. 3. Place items in relatively fixed locations and return them to their original places after use. For some important things, you can record them with a pen to develop good living habits. 4. Patients should pay attention to supplementing their diet with fresh vegetables, fruits, corn, whole wheat, beans, garlic, mushrooms, milk, sardines, lean meat and other foods. 5. You can take a certain amount of ginkgo leaf extract and vitamin E every day
