Oh, I remember. It was to tell you about ways to improve your memory - from little reminder devices to help you take your medicine on time to books and websites and devices that promise to improve your brain function. BIndependent is a website that offers a host of devices to remind you or a loved one to take medicine, from a pill-box timer with 37 daily alarms for $29.95 to the Med-Ready Plus, which is not just a pill-dispenser: It moniters dispensing times and can alert you and others on a secure website if a loved one hasn’t taken their medicine (it’s $227). They also have a variety of watches which sound alarms, vibrate or even display a message at the right time. APH Products has a motion sensor called MotionPAD ($34) which you attach to a wall, and, when you walk by it, you’ll hear a recording reminding you of something (or it can just chime). GrandInRoad has a personalized reminder pad that you can hang on doorknobs, so you can’t open the door without seeing it. From there, we move into an arena that is, well, not universally embraced: brain- and memory-enhancing pills or supplements, which are all over the web. For example, Mind-Power-RX promises to improve mental alertness and stamina for $30 a bottle. Let’s just say the FDA doesn’t approve of these things, and the medical journal Lancet said supplements do not enhance memory. So, buyer beware. We could go on and on. Slate.com had a writer experiment with all manner of brain-improvement techniques and things. They found CDs (like a selection of “Brain Enhancing” CDs - one reportedly uses white noise and random irritating sounds to increase your focus and attention), books (like The Memory Pack, which was written by a winner of the World Memory Championship, or The Einstein Factor) and even online options (such as My Brain Trainer or Brain Builder - both of which charge a fee). All of this is supposed to make you sharper mentally or just help you remember things. If you don’t think any of that will work, there’s the Mind Spa - which Slate.com also rated - that is supposed to put you in different brain states by way of unusual-looking glasses that flash lights and a headset to listen to an assorment of pulsing sounds - all of which costs upwards of $200. But can you really put a price on a better brain?
