Alzheimer's: Prevent it now!
Author: Lambert Klein
Copyright 2005 Think Healthy
Do you think you can avoid Alzheimer's?
Many people think mental health is more important than physical
health. We desire to keep our brains sharp and focus while
remaining relax, calm and comfortable with our emotions.
If you are living healthy by getting exercise, eating foods with
proper nutrition and drinking good quality water, then you
already have a good start on preventing Alzheimer's.
Other things to consider are making new friends, joining a club
or organization or perhaps a gym. Socialization is an important
step to our mental and emotional health.
You should think about these things now not later when the
damage is beginning to take its toll. Preventative measures are
usually the best approach to staying healthy. This also applies
to preventing Alzheimer's.
Nutrition and vitamins such as vitamin C and E may reduce your
risk of Alzheimer's by absorbing free radicals. A study from
John Hopkins shows that people taking both vitamin C and E were
64% less likely to develop Alzheimer's.
You can do something to prevent Alzheimer's by following a
healthy lifestyle.
Find a new hobby, interest or challenge your brain with puzzles
or learning something new. If you enjoy walking take alternative
routes to stimulate your senses.
Exercise is important for you overall health. This can also help
to prevent mental problems. Exercising will keep you fit and
help to nourish your body with oxygen.
Green tea, berries, and nuts are excellent brain food. Eating
healthy foods that are rich in protein, antioxidants, calcium
and B vitamins will go a long way in preventing Alzheimer's.
You will want to eliminate aluminum and mercury as much as
possible. Be careful about the pots you cook in, your deodorant
and drinking water. Also be aware that flu shots and other
vaccinations could contain mercury or other poisons.
Don't forget about mercury fillings. Do you really want
poisonous mercury in your head?
Here are some nutrients that may help keep Alzheimer's at bay:
* Grape Seed Oil * Folic Acid * B1, B6, B12 * Vitamin C *
Vitamin E (better from whole food sources) * Zinc * Lecithin *
Garlic * Co Q10 * Ginkgo * High Quality Fish Oil * Sunlight *
Curcumin * Silica
Levels of Choline decline as we age. Choline is a nutrient the
brain uses to produce acetylcholine, which helps our memory.
Choline is found in fish and eggs.
Blueberries may be one of the most important foods to combat
mental decline as is fish oil with omega3 and DHA. Lowering
simple carbohydrates could benefit you as well.
Although there are a few nutrients that specifically may help
with Alzheimer's, we should consider that a general healthy
lifestyle is the basics of preventing health problems.
Get outside in the sunlight when you can. Earlier is better than
later. Go for a walk or do some yard work. Maybe you enjoy
horseshoes?
Start now by exercising, eating healthy and challenging your
mind with puzzles or a new hobby. Take a night course. Learn
something new. You will benefit with the new knowledge you have
acquired and keeping your mind sharp.
One final note: There have been some reported cases of people
diagnosed with Alzheimer's where in fact they merely had a B12
deficiency!

Are All Dementias Alzheimer’s? |
|
I’m surprised when some patients and caregivers confuse dementia and Alzheimer’s as one and the same. Each time a family member is suffering from memory loss, the conclusion is always Alzheimer’s. Is it reasonable to label all dementias as Alzheimer’s?
As a clinician, my answer to queries is that Alzheimer’s dementia is only one type of dementia and that not all dementias are Alzheimer’s. Aside from Alzheimer’s disease, other dementias exist such as Dementia with lewy body, Vascular dementia, Parkinson’s disease with dementia, and dementias due to various neurologic and medical conditions.
How will you know if a person is suffering from Alzheimer’s dementia? What is Alzheimer’s dementia?
Alzheimer’s dementia is a neurologic disorder characterized by a progressive and irreversible cognitive decline associated with impairment in functioning. The cognitive deterioration consists of memory impairment. Initially there is recent memory impairment but as the disease progresses,... |
