Presentation transcript:

Regular Exercise  Decrease risk by 50%  Slow further deterioration of the patients mental state  Help the brain by maintaining regular blood flow and increasing chemicals that protect the brain  It decreases the natural deterioration of the brain in elderly..

Healthy Diet  Mediterranean diet

 Saturated and trans fatty acid  cause inflammation and produce free radicals.  Poly- and monounsaturated fatty acids:  ” In this study, higher intake of PUFA and MUFA was associated with a reduced likelihood of MCI among elderly persons in the population-based setting.” Roberts RO et al. J Alzheimers Dis. 2010;21(3): Roberts RO et al. J Alzheimers Dis. 2010;21(3):853-65

Mental Stimulation  Stimulating brain regularly slows down the onset of Alzheimer’s and dementia.

Quality Sleep  Poor sleep regularly can result in high levels of beta-amyloid.  Deep sleep is necessary for memory formation.

Stress Management  Stress that is chronic or severe takes a heavy toll on the brain:  Leading to shrinkage of the hippocampus  Hampering nerve cell growth

Social Life  We don’t thrive in isolation, neither do our brains.  Social life increases brain activity and therefore even protects against Alzheimer's.
