A healthy diet is pretty much needed to prevent all kinds of illnesses, but is there anything in particular to consume to lower the risk of having Alzheimer's in the future?

My dads wife has recently submitted an application for divorcing. In fact, I don't care about her, she have always accused me for being lazy and things like that, because I can't work any more. She had a son which suffered from schizophrenia, and before she met my dad, he committed suicide.

But I think her divorcing depends on beginning Alzheimers... I have noticed how oblivious she is. For example, we use to go to ...

and that was exactly what it felt like, caring for my father with alzheimer's disease for over a year. as the disease progressed, everything fell into a darkness that was totally confused. if he understood me, he often didn't say so. if i asked him anything, he almost always replied that he didn't know. and, i have to say, the thing that threw me the most was that here i was trying to communicate with ...

Hi,
Can someone please answer this question? Can a person's true nature come out when they have alzheimer's? This is about my mother. Please read about her here -

So far as I can see, her jealousy and hatred of me does not emerge unless she is lucid and know its actually me. She is not that far gone. She can eat by herself, can talk. She just ...

I'm generally happy. Everything under control. In an unusual new situation. I'm an adult only-child of elderly parents. My parents had me late.
My extended family is pushing me and my parents to appoint a legal guardian for them due to poor/incomplete estate planning and the health of my parents.
This is a legal issue not a medical issue but ....I need to stay sane and I don't know whom I can talk to besides ...

An explanation of the lysosome dysfunction that causes neurodegenerative diseases. I made it for aging, but it may be useful for those interested in it for other reasons. Take care.

The Alzheimer's disease symptoms are frequently confused with the changes that occur in usual aging, so it is significant to know the difference. I have read in ‘nun study treatment’ in google recently that we must determine about Alzheimer's disease because this disease is actually not an ordinary part of aging. When the ApoE4 gene occurs, the danger will continue, and due to this, the risk of contracting Alzheimer's may enhance to 50%. Some symptoms ...

I live with a 65 year old man, that I am curious about.

he has an online business and many times he forgets to send in orders or email the customer tracking numbers, also in the car he'll be driving and totally forget where he is going. He routinely loses credit cards and other important items he has put in the same place for years. He leaves his cell phone everywhere. I tell him I ...

Is there a consensus in the assessment of cognitive decline worsening which combines several neuropsychological battery tests? For example, in assessing the worsening of a patient's dementia I would think it is insufficient to simply look at his/her CDR score or MMSE score alone. Is there a combination of CDR, MMSE and perhaps some other tests that over a one-year period would indicate worsening of decline? Is there a consensus variable that combines several tests ...
