Brain Zapping Boosts Memory? Yep. Wait, What?

A little electric shock to your brain might improve your memory.

A new study shows that a mild electrical current, zapped to the brains of people over 60-years-old, helped their working memory – to be as good as anyone in their 20’s.

The working memory is how we hold information for a matter of seconds, to do tasks like math or planning.

More research is needed, though, before this can be recommended as treatment.
