Mind over Matter
Believe it or not, but scientists have recently done something just a few years ago (ok, like 20) we didn't think was possible: regenrate neural tissue, specifically the brain. I can still remember my 7th grade teacher drilling into us that once nerve cells are damaged, they cannot be repaired, only other nerves can compensate for the loss. Well, now it seems we're making progress. Just think of the potential helps this could turn into in the future!

And they don't way what this "ionic peptide" is? Heck, my lab works with peptides, but I don't think we're getting any neuron repair out of it...
