Simple rules for preventing Alzheimer's disease named
Alzheimer's disease, the most common form of dementia, is becoming more common. As a rule, it occurs at the age of 60 and above, reports “Evening Moscow”.
As the world's population is gradually aging, the number of cases of senile dementia is increasing. If in 2016 there were about 48 million such patients in the world, then by 2050, according to forecasts, there will be 150 million.
But there is a chance to reduce the risk of developing the disease if you follow simple rules. The first is to follow your biorhythms, setting aside enough time to sleep. Lack of sleep is detrimental to both the brain and overall well-being.
You should also switch to proper nutrition and exercise. During physical activity, substances appear in the body that help protect the nerve cells.
Another secret is positive emotions. Studies have shown that stress, anxiety, and depression increase the risk of developing dementia. In addition, pessimists are more likely to develop Alzheimer's disease.
