Focus on Alzheimer’s prevention over cure?

  How to prevent the development of mental retardation?
  1.Use your brain often
  Always stimulate and train your brain with knowledge, such as reading books and newspapers, learning computers, learning foreign languages and doing all kinds of calculations, etc., and take the initiative to take in and remember this knowledge to keep your mind sharp. In addition, concentrating on your hobbies and passions is also the secret to keeping your brain young, so don’t let your mind rest for a long time.
  2. Exercise often  
  Take part in proper physical exercise and give equal importance to physical and mental activities. Proper exercise and physical work can make the brain and nervous system get exercise, improve the strength, balance, flexibility and endurance of the nerve work process; can make the nerve cells get more adequate supply of energy materials and oxygen, can avoid excessive tension in the nervous system, can eliminate fatigue, make the mind clear and quick thinking.
  3.Balanced nutrition
  Be sure to pay attention to balanced nutrition, eat on time, especially to supplement sufficient high-quality protein and multivitamins.
  4.Adequate sleep
  Ensure sufficient sleep time to effectively relieve the brain of excessive fatigue.
  5.Participate in group activities
  Listening to music, walking, sports, hiking, playing chess, etc. with friends, in the process of mutual interaction, communication and exchange, can improve the atmosphere, enlighten the wisdom, and also greatly benefit to maintain the brain’s memory capacity.
  Is physical exercise good for relieving memory loss?
  Through physical exercise, the brain and nervous system can be exercised to improve the strength, balance, flexibility and endurance of the nerve work process; it enables the nerve cells to obtain a more adequate supply of energy substances and oxygen, so that the brain and nervous system can obtain sufficient energy substances to ensure the intense work process. According to research, when the brain cells work, it needs more blood than muscle cells how many 10 to 20 times, the brain oxygen consumption accounted for 20% to 25% of the whole body oxygen consumption. Physical exercise can make the brain’s excitation and inhibition process reasonable alternation, to avoid excessive tension in the nervous system, can eliminate fatigue, make the mind clear and quick thinking.
  Can diversified exercise help prevent Alzheimer’s disease?
  Walking, housework, gardening, jogging, cycling, dancing, working out, bowling and swimming are some of the sports that can be participated in to better prevent Alzheimer’s disease? Exercise can prevent Alzheimer’s disease, but a study by researchers at Johns Hopkins University found that older adults who have a wide range of interests and participate in a variety of activities are least likely to develop Alzheimer’s disease, and even activities that require sedentary time like playing cards are beneficial in preventing Alzheimer’s disease.
  How to arrange the life of Alzheimer’s patients?
  1. Mentally, people around, especially relatives and children should give full understanding and understanding to Alzheimer’s patients, create a quiet and comfortable living environment for the elderly as much as possible, try to keep in touch with the society, prevent them from being in a lonely and closed state, let the elderly participate in some social activities suitable for them as much as possible, pay attention to sympathy and care for them, and make arrangements for clothing, food, housing and transportation. Be comfortable.
  2. In life, try to help the patients to make their life regular, get up and wash, eat and nap on time, and let them do some chores within their ability, so that they can “remember” what they should do. Special attention should be paid to avoid the reversal of the day and night, sleep during the day, but at night the spirit of excitement not sleep, which will affect the family and neighbors rest, but also due to the lack of care and accidents.
  3, try to help the patient to use more brains, strengthen the memory. The law of use and disuse applies to the human brain, the more the brain is used, the more it is degraded.
  How to help Alzheimer’s patients with aphasia to recover their language function?
  There are two types of aphasia.
  One is aphasia in patients with Alzheimer’s disease.
  The second is aphasia in patients with cerebrovascular disease due to damage to the dominant hemisphere of the brain.
  Aphasia can be divided into two main categories.
  1. motor aphasia, in which the patient is unable to express his or her thoughts in words.
  2. sensory aphasia, in which the patient cannot understand what others are saying. In rare cases, mixed aphasia can also occur, where the patient cannot understand the words of others and cannot speak for himself.
  The aphasic patient cannot communicate with the outside world, which will accelerate the dementia process. The methods of rehabilitation training are: 1. To conduct language function rehabilitation training. Motor aphasia is easier to train than sensory aphasia, and the training should be from simple to complex. 2. Sensory aphasia and mixed aphasia are more difficult to train because the patient cannot understand what others say. The patient should say some simple and clear language, such as “water, drink water” repeatedly when the patient drinks water, point to the name of the object, such as “bowl, lamp, book”, etc. After a period of time, the patient will have some improvement, and then gradually say some complex sentences. 3. Encourage the patient to talk more with others, read more newspapers, and train gradually to build up the patient’s confidence in recovery.
  What foods are beneficial for Alzheimer’s prevention?
  Eggs are one of the best proteins and contain a lot of lecithin. 1 to 2 eggs per day for the elderly can meet the needs of the body; dairy and lean meat are rich in high-quality protein; beans and their products contain 40% high-quality protein and 1.64% lecithin; fish are good for the health of brain cells because they contain the important substances needed for brain nerve conduction. The supply of fat is controlled at 20 to 25% of the caloric energy of food, 50 to 60g/day, including the fats and cooking oil contained in food. The amount of cholesterol should be controlled within 300mg/day and should not be overly restricted. If the restriction is too strict, it will affect the intake of other nutrients, and if the cholesterol is too low, it may also affect the repair of tissues and immune function. Carbohydrates should be limited to 60% to 65% of the total caloric energy, especially reducing sugar which only produces caloric energy but no other nutrients.
  How can Alzheimer’s patients take micronutrient supplements?
  Geriatrics research has found that some trace elements in the diet are closely related to Alzheimer’s disease. By paying attention to supplementing seafood, edible mushrooms, beans and their products, fish, dairy, sesame paste, various vegetables and fruits in the daily diet, the organism can obtain sufficient amount of minerals. According to clinical observation, patients with Alzheimer’s disease have low serum thiamine, nicotinic acid, ascorbic acid, riboflavin, folic acid, vitamin A and vitamin B12. The vitamins needed by the body can be met by supplementing the daily diet with coarse grains and various animal and plant foods.
  What are the common dietary remedies for Alzheimer’s disease?
  1.15g of black fungus, 1 pig brain, 1 spoon of yellow wine and salt, make dishes for consumption.
  2.50g each of thorny mustard spike and peppermint leaf, 150g each of tempeh and white corn, squeeze the juice of thorny mustard spike, peppermint leaf and tempeh first, and then cook the porridge with corn, 1 time/day on an empty stomach.
  3, 500g of noodles, 30g of pork, 1 cuttlefish, 100g of fish, 25g of mung bean sprouts, 6 bowls of chicken soup, make dishes for consumption.

  5.Fish 200g, 2 pieces of tofu, seaweed in the right amount, dishes to eat.
  6, 1 pair of pork loin, make dishes to eat.
  7, wolfberry 30g, 1 pair of sheep brain, water in the right amount, stewed in water, seasoned food. Can nourish the liver and kidneys, brain and calm the mind.
  What foods have a brain-healthy effect?
  In daily life there are many brain-healthy food, if you can reasonably match, also has the effect of delaying memory loss, such as.
  1, nuts such as walnuts, peanuts, almonds, lotus seeds, chestnuts, etc..
  2, mushroom foods such as shiitake mushrooms, silver fungus, black fungus, etc.
  3, soy products such as soybeans, mung beans, bean sprouts, etc.

  6, vegetables, spinach, leeks, pumpkin, peppers, peas, carrots, tomatoes, garlic, baby bok choy, celery, etc. Regular consumption of brain-boosting food, can delay aging, brain fitness and education.
