7 Body Mods That Everybody Might Soon Have

5. Brain Enhancing Drugs

We use drugs to enhance our bodies - to give them more energy, to rid them of pain - but drugs to enhance our minds are far less commonplace.

At the moment, we tend to use mind-enhancing drugs to bring those with issues back to "normal", with antidepressants and concentration enhancing drugs like Ritalin, but it could be that we'll see a new generation of "cog-enhancers" designed to give the brain a temporary boost.

Got a test to revise for? Pop a memory booster. Need to be on the top of your game for a football game? Take a pill to double your reaction times. Easily distracted? Boost your productivity and boss your workload.

Cognitive enhancers, or nootropics, are still really in their infancy, with some shaky clinical results, but many experts remain convinced that we could one day buy over-the-counter enhancements for your IQ, memory and concentration.
