Forgetfulness - Chinese Medicine explanation and treatment
Forgetfulness is usually age-related and elderly people find it increasingly difficult to remember names or telephone numbers. Chinese medicine can be helpful for forgetfulness. Poor memory is seen as a deficiency of the kidney essence.

Chinese Medicine treatment for forgetfulness includes toning the kidneys with black sesame seeds, dogwood fruit, dodder seed and mulberry fruit. There will not be a quick result, but in the long term there will be an improvement. Acupuncture is also helpful in sharpening the memory.
