A study published in the British Medical Journal found that certain habits can decrease your risk of developing Alzheimer\u2019s. \nThe researchers analyzed questionnaire data from 2,449 people over the age of 65. \nA lifestyle score was developed based on factors like diet, cognitive activity, physical activity, smoking, and alcohol consumption. \nThe total life expectancy of participants with 4 or 5 factors was 23-24 years, with 6-10% of this living with Alzheimer\u2019s Disease. \nLife expectancy was significantly shorter for those with less than 1 factor and more of their life was spent living with the disease. \nExperts say that physical activity and brain-stimulating hobbies like learning a new skill may protect against Alzheimer's. \nModerate alcohol consumption may also reduce the risk of developing the disease, but those who don't drink shouldn't start now.
Ask a doc: 'How can I reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s disease?' Here are 3 tips, and every 67 seconds, someone in America develops the disease, according to Monica Moreno, senior director of care and support at the Alzheimer’s Association in Chicago.
“As we age, we will all tend to experience changes in our brains,” she said, “such as slower processing speed, trouble multitasking, occasional challenges with word retrieval, decreased ability to learn new information quickly, andBut if these things become frequent — or if they increase in severity and you start to notice a pattern — it could be a sign of Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia, Eichenberger said.
“Many different types of dementia exist and many conditions cause it,” Moreno of the Alzheimer’s Association in Chicago told Fox News Digital. “Dementia is an umbrella term describing cognitive decline serious enough to interfere with daily living.” “It is important never to talk about the person in front of them or assume they don’t understand,” she said.
To reduce the risk of falls and accidents, she recommends creating a safe environment by installing grab bars in the bathrooms, automatic stove shut-offs and door sensors to alert family if someone has exited the home. Added Eichenberger, “People living with dementia can still plan ahead, make goals for the future or explore new hobbies.”
