Your mind is in your hands.

Studies show that an active mind is a healthy mind.

In double blind studies

Laboratory raccoons who were genetically pre-conditioned

to develop Alsheimers were twice as likely to enjoy

Nicotine as non-demented control animals.

Lab tests prove a demented raccoon quickly learns

To roll its own cigarettes but it can't flick its bic,

Only a wooden match will suffice

As paper ones don't work in their little hands.

The study also shows demented raccoons roll

Twice as quickly as their non demented counterparts.

Startling results from hippocampal and amygdala dependant

Learning tests prove submerged demented raccoons

Had only 80% of the normal tau protiens

Of their unsubmerged non-demented cousins.

They displayed tangled clumps of tau proteins

And hyperphosphorlylated tau strands

Causing their neurons to become diseased.

Healthy Neuron                                                                Diseased Neuron

These results show that nicotine prevented the

Neurofibrillary tangles which cause memory loss

In demented raccoons, while improving short term spatial memory

In non demented control   animals.
