The following article highlights recent discoveries, which find that lactate is critical in the formation of memories: http://actu.epfl.ch/...oosting-memory/
Here's a quote:
"They administered lactate into the brains of living mice, and then extracted the tissues and measured gene expression. Once again, the expression of genes involved in cerebral plasticity increased significantly."
So, my question is, other than exercise, are there other ways to safely increase lactate levels in the brain? Any supplements, foods, activities (LLLT, meditation, etc.)...?
