Then, you create avivid mental image associating the first item you want to rememberwith the first peg word, the next item with the next pegword, and so on. To recall the list, use each successive peg wordto help retrieve the mental image.13. Forget the ginkgo biloba.Think you can supercharge your memory banks by taking the herbginkgo biloba? If only it were that easy! Researcher Paul R.Solomon and his colleagues (2002) pitted ginkgo against a placeboin a randomized, double-blind study for six weeks involving over200 participants who were mentally healthy. The bottom line? Noeffect. The ginkgo biloba did not improve performance on tests oflearning, memory, attention, or concentration.
