Anxiety with Dementia decreased by calcium and magnesium nutrients

After 4 weeks of taking care of her and with introduction of nutritional supplementation rich in calcium and magnesium, she did not shout last night. I also spent some time massaging her head and face after I massage her legs between the hours of 6 to 7 pm. We still need to get a protective top mattress cover for her hospital bed to prevent bed sores and provide more comfort. I also served cooked – boiled sweet potatoes last night. When I shop for her food, I include eggs, nutrition drink, blueberries, lemon, avocados, bananas, oranges, salmon, veggies for soups (cilantro, carrots, celery, onions, garlic)
