Alzheimers – The Preventable Disease That Is Set To Hammer Baby Boomer. Part 1

I was talking to a friend this morning, who commented that her mother was holidaying

with her & that she was dismayed to discover that she was showing signs of Alzheimer's Disease. Her mother could remember the long term things but not short term things, like the fact that she was on holidays at her daughter's house. Living some distance away, she arranged for a closer relative to take on power of attorney and the legal responsibilities, whilst seeing to more practical things, like getting rid of her mother's car. My friend found herself unable to go to work or leave her mother unattended for any length of time. This is just one example of how this preventable disease impacts on whole families. It got me thinking about how so little is being done to prevent Alzheimer's Disease, even though research indicates that lifestyle and diet is a primary cause of this disease. Such is the estimated growth of this preventable disease, that the health care system in the USA is expected to come under huge financial strain as the baby boomers age. Other westernized countries such as Australia and United Kingdom should expect this same onslaught as more and more people develop dementia, become disorientated and require 24hr care. Regardless of economics, if you have a family member who has had Alzheimer's Disease, the thought of developing it yourself is probably a scary one. If you think it is ok to worry about Alzheimer's Disease once you hit your 60's or 70's think again. The disease is sometimes called "old timers disease", but brain ageing has been found to start at age 40. Change occurs with a set of genes that regulate the functions which are vital for normal brain function and protect brain cells from damage these changes are related to energy protection and transportation of protein in brain cells. What makes us susceptible to Alzheimers? The factors that increase susceptibility include: 1. Unrelentless stress 2. Alcohol and substance abuse 3. Smoking 4. Excess body fat and obesity 5. Standard western diet 6. Metabolic syndrome 7. Chronic illness such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease or hypertension. In part 2, find out what you can do to help someone you know with Alzheimer's disease and how you can decrease your risk of developing this devastating disease.
