Alzheimer's disease is a degenerative disease of the nervous system with insidious onset. Manifestations include memory impairment, aphasia, apraxia, agnosia, impairment of visuospatial skills, executive dysfunction, and personality and behavioral changes, the cause of which is still unknown. Those who develop the disease before the age of 65 are called Alzheimer's disease; People who develop the disease after the age of 65 are called senile dementia.
Nowadays, due to the younger age of cardiovascular disease, the age of onset of Alzheimer's disease is also advanced. Probably around 45 years old, and even in their thirties, many people may not believe it, but from the perspective of most people's eating habits and living habits, there are roots. Clinical presentation
It is divided into three periods according to the degree of deterioration of cognitive ability and physical function. The first stage (1~3 years): mild dementia. Stage 2 (2~10 years): moderate dementia. The third stage (8~12 years): severe dementia. They eventually fall into a coma and usually die from complications such as infection. 3 habits that I advise you to break as soon as possible
(1) Long-term satiety The most common brain-damaging behavior is the habit of eating too much for a long time. Long-term satiety can easily lead to cerebral arteriosclerosis, premature brain aging and mental retardation. Therefore, insist on eating only seven minutes full at each meal, keep a clear head, and control weight and lose weight. (2) Eating too much oil Often it is greasy that many middle-aged people can't restrain themselves, especially meat, if you eat too much, the cholesterol level in the blood will increase step by step. People with high cholesterol have a 3-5 times higher risk of developing Alzheimer's disease! (3) Sedentary lifestyle Sitting still is harmful to people's back, waist, and legs, but this is not all harm. Because some studies have found that sitting quietly for a long time can easily lead to dementia! Therefore, proper activity can improve memory and keep the brain in a youthful state. Alzheimer's disease prevention
The functions of the human brain are used up and down, and different areas of the brain need to be stimulated frequently in order to maintain "youth".
There are several ways to prevent Alzheimer's disease:
1. Listen to more music Japanese experts have found that music has a positive stimulating effect on brain waves, blood flow, hormones, etc., and can also stimulate people's various senses, thereby activating brain function. 2. Prevention and treatment of constipation Through the investigation and research of more than 10,000 elderly people, it has been found that long-term constipation will reduce people's intelligence level, and it has been found that 80% of Alzheimer's patients have a positive correlation with constipation, so the prevention and treatment of constipation can help prevent Alzheimer's disease.
3. Pick beans You can mix black beans and red beans at home and pick them out for a limited time, or you can compete with your family to see how many beans you can pick out in a minute. 3. Hairing work If we have free time, we can do some hair work at home, or needlework, as many tricks as possible, can exercise our brain. Trying to pick up beans with chopsticks within a set time, or doing a traditional casual hands-on project such as hairing are highly recommended preventive exercises that are highly recommended for everyone. They all need to be coordinated by the hands, eyes, and brain, and can play a role in preventing Alzheimer's disease.
