Sometimes people with damaage to the hippocampus may appear like they have a learning disability but that is not the case.
Think about this......
For the hippocampus to function properly and people to remember things the hippocampus needs the following;
Oxygen
Glucose (It needs balanced levels, too much or too little is not good)
Sleep (Information is stored during sleep + the brain may actually rehearse motor movements)
No Cortisol (This is the stree hormone that we hear so much about)
No electricity (Long Term Memory loss can take place from being tazed just 1 time)
