Thanks for the tip. He already takes E along with quite a few other supplements.
I took a look at the article in Science. They were dosing their monkeys electrophoretically with GABA and muscimol!
Muscimol (aka Ibotenic acid) is the toxin found in Amanita Muscaria. It's highly toxic and an hallucinogen. It's also fairly widely used in brain research judging by the number of hits returned by a Google search.
Not the sort of thing I can recommend to my father.
