My answer to What is the best treatment for of Alzheimer’s disease?
Answer by Connie b. Dellobuono:
Nurture, whole foods, exercise and less medications are my suggestions for extending the life of someone with Alzheimer’s disease.
Can we prevent these risks?
- Your risk for Alzheimer’s goes up as you get older. For most people, it starts going up after age 65.
- Women get the disease more often than men.
- Family history. People who have a parent or sibling with Alzheimer’s are more likely to get it themselves.
- Down syndrome . It’s not clear why, but people with this disorder often get Alzheimer’s disease in their 30s and 40s.
- Cleanse your body from parasites. It destroys the liver, blood and brain and over time can cause cancer.
- Head injury. Some studies have shown a link between Alzheimer’s disease and a major head injury.
- High cholesterol levels
- High blood sugar
- High blood pressure
- Lack of Exercise/Musculoskeletal Disorders (lack of Vitamin D)
- Environmental toxins (food,etc)
