Hello,

I am just wondering if there is a single example which is known and proven where a person from any background, doing anything actually improved their IQ from something like 100 to 140.  It seems as if some of this stuff such as Dual-N-Back makes a few point difference with a ceiling, and that learning a musical instrument can give you a 7 point gain, but all of the gains seem minor.

I am wondering if you know of anyone/anything who has had an actual dramatic leap in IQ which is proven.

Thanks,
Dave

Well my IQ is 112, and I am autistic so I have higher neuroplasticity than most people. I will be participating in SMART interventions and I'll let you know how it goes. I also take better care of myself now, I go to the gym, I try to sleep(I have mild sleep apnea and I'm trying to fix that by losing some weight and fixing sleeping positions as well), I'm supplementing things like fish oil,B12,zinc(I'm lacto ovo vegetarian, I don't get every nutrient I need). Also I've been trying to do syllogimous everyday. And also I want to do at least 30 minutes of Low intensity steady state cardio per day, that will probably benefit me.
