				Close to Amsterdam, Dirck Swaab, from the Dutch Institute on 
				Brain Research, showed the favorable influence of testosterone 
				on rats' brains. Observation under the microscope indicates that 
				nerve cells are well ramified in the young rat. These 
				ramifications disappear in old rats 
				
				but reappear under the influence of testosterone implants. 
				The phenomenon is most probably the same one in man. 
				
				6% of people of more than 65  reach insanity of variable 
				gravity, caused by the deterioration of nervous ramifications 
				and appearance of senile plaques in their cerebral structures. 
				Not counting the fundamental impact of testosterone on the 
				maintenance of cerebral arteries'diameter, can one neglect the 
				regenerating effect of male hormones on ramifications of the 
				brain's nerve cells? 
				
				 Testosterone:
				
				 
					
					
					Allows growth and ramification of nervous fibers.
					Prevents arterial atheroma.
					
					It inhibits the production of amyloid protein and, 
					consequently, its deposit in the brain's senile plaques 
					(4-5).
