Dementia is not a specific disease. It’s a general term for
gradual decrease in the person’s ability to think and remember that is great
enough to affect a person’s daily functioning. It is a collection of symptoms
that can affect their intellectual functioning. They lose their ability to
solve problems and maintain emotional control and they may experience
personality changes and behavioral problems. Dementia is caused by physical
changes or damage to brain cells. Because of this damage, brain cells cannot
communicate with each other and if they cannot communicate with each other
normally, their thinking, behavior and feelings can be affected. It becomes more common with age. It is
one of the most common causes of disability among the old. The most common type of dementia is Alzheimer,
which affect 60 to
80% of cases. Vascular dement, is the second most common dementia type, which
occurs after a stroke.
There is
no cure for dementia but
there are some drug treatments that may temporarily improve symptoms. Researchers
are working to find out the ways to prevent it.
So what
can we do to reduce the risk and to prevent it? According
to the ‘alz.org Alzheimer’s association’, “….researchers continue to explore
the impact of other risk factors on brain health and prevention of dementia.
Some of the most active areas of research in risk reduction and prevention
include cardiovascular factors, physical fitness, and diet.”
Hmmm….
So from now on I need to keep eye on my physical activity & diet.

ReplyDeleteRose Weel is my name, I live in USA. I want to say to the whole world how my husband was cured of his Alzheimer’s disease. Brothers and Sisters, my husband is 78 years old. He is a retired US Army. He fought so many wars, and had encounter with so many dangerous diseases. Before he embarked on his last peace mission to Iraq they were administered injections that will enable them carry out their duties effectively. So they went to the battle field where he lost so many of his colleagues and also he was shot on his throat but bullets don’t have much effect on him. So after the battle he survived it and returned back to USA off course he was rewarded heavily by the government, and that lead to his retirement. But after his retirement, he began to behave funny like forgetting all he did in the past, and sometimes don’t recognize me his wife quickly. I took him to Military hospital, and the doctor said some king of liquid in his body is causing him so many reactions, and this is affecting his brain to cut the long story short, after much diagnoses using EEG, and also the test of PROTEIN 14-3-3 all pointing out to the fact that his brain has malfunction. So he was giving medicines but his condition was still becoming worse even while taking the medicines administered. So we went back to the military hospital, and he was finally diagnosed of Alzheimer’s disease and this the doctor said have no cure. So his conditions began to get worst by the day. I cried out for help, but the government only gave us financial support. I all the time surf the web looking for possible cure until I ran into a blog where a man named James Watt gave testimony on how his cousin was cured of CJD by an herbal doctor called Doctor Uwadia Amenifo. In his testimony he imputed the contact detail of the herbalist. So I quickly copied out the contact details of Uwadia, and I contacted him immediately and explained to him what my husband is going through. He encouraged me and promised me that surly he will cure my husband, so after all necessary arrangement was made; he prepared the herbal medicine, and shipped it to me in USA, so I followed his instructions, and gave the medicine to my husband. Behold just like a magic in my eyes my husband was responding positively to the medicine and in just less than 3 weeks I started giving him the medicine, he was very okay, and in less than 7 weeks my husband was totally curd, and as I speak to you now my husband is totally cured, and he is now very okay, and in good health. So please all here shall help me say a big thanks to Doctor Uwadia Amenifo for helping me cure my husband of his Alzheimer’s disease. Please if you need Doctor Uwadia’s contact details, here is it. Email (doctoruwadiaamenifo@gmail.com) and his number is (+2349052015874). God bless all.
