SHAMPOO CLAIMS TO IMPROVE MEMORY

SAN DIEGO (Wireless Flash) -- Here's a hair-raising idea: a shampoo that supposedly improves your memory. That's the claim of a new line of hair products that contains ginkgo biloba, that herb that supposedly increases oxygen flow to the brain to improve memory. The manufacturer of the shampoo -- called "Brainwash" -- hopes the stuff will become popular with yuppies looking for a memory boost, but other potential markets include senile seniors and former pot smokers suffering from bad short-term memory. A spokesperson says it takes about two weeks before the shampooer notices any memory improvement.
