    Extractions: WEIGHT LOSS NEWS + FEATURES CALORIES SHOPPING ... About Weight Loss Resources Researchers in the US believe it can. New research has been published that says if we eat a diet that is rich in an omega 3 fatty acid called DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) we will reduce our chances of getting Alzheimer's, as this acid protects the brain against memory loss and cell damage that is caused by Alzheimer's. Consuming more DHA is something that we can control easily as DHA is found in soy, fish and other oils. You can also get it in a more concentrated form as fish oil capsules and DHA supplemented eggs. Dr Greg Cole, associate director of UCLA Alzheimer's Disease Research Center, has done a study on mice who have the Alzheimer's gene and found that mice fed a diet high in DHA had less memory loss and less brain cell damage than the mice that were on a diet high in DHA. Dr Cole says, "We saw that a diet rich in DHA dramatically reduces the impact of the Alzheimer's gene." The human brain absorbs DHA rapidly, making it crucial for proper cognitive function, eye development and mental tasks. Good food sources of DHA are oil rich fish: salmon, halibut, mackerel, sardines and herring.

    Extractions: Often it is difficult to pinpoint when the Alzheimer’s disease actually began in a person. Usually, the person experiences a gradual onset of memory problems. The person with early Alzheimer’s disease may express concern that his/her memory is failing, and he/she may begin to struggle to find the right words when speaking. Family members notice that it is more difficult for the person with Alzheimer’s disease to learn something new or to remember what was recently told to him/her. As the illness progresses and other functions of the brain are affected, the Alzheimer's victim becomes increasingly impaired. In addition to problems with memory, he/she begins to have personality changes, including increased irritability or outbursts of anger. The patient may lose his/her motivation, ambition, and pride. He/she may begin to exhibit symptoms related to depression and anxiety.

Evidence supporting the value of folic acid to drinking women has just been published in the American Journal of Epidemiology and in the UK in the journal GP. The research looked at 80,000 nurses aged between 35 and 60 who had no previous history of heart disease or cancer. They were followed for 16 years, and researchers found that among heavy drinkers, those who took more than 300mcg of folic acid a day almost completely eliminated the increased risk of breast and colorectal cancers associated with heavy drinking. Folic acid may also help to prevent Alzheimer's disease, heart disease and strokes. Source: Times 2 Dr Thomas Stuttaford looks at Alzheimer's disease, and how it can be avoided and treated. He recommends a diet rich in folic acid, together with plenty of fish, low levels of saturated fat, no smoking, a modest alcohol intake and a daily multivitamin. There is a suggestion that COX-1 and COX-2 inhibitors also have an inhibitory effect on the development of Alzheimer's disease when taken regularly. The role of HRT is uncertain, and the final answer will only be found after more clinical trials. In the past year, Ebixa has been licensed for use with moderate and advanced Alzheimer's, and Dr Stuttaford explains how it differs from older Alzheimer's drugs such as Aricept, Reminyl and Exelon.

Hints for Family Caregivers Contact Information: Toll-free: Many people are afraid that growing old means losing the ability to think, reason, or remember. They worry when they feel confused or forgetful that these feelings are the first signs of senility. In the past, doctors dismissed memory loss, confusion, or similar behaviors as a normal part of aging. However, scientists now know that most people remain alert and capable as they age. They also know that people who experience changes in personality, behavior, or skills may be suffering from a form of brain disease called dementia The term dementia describes a group of symptoms that usually are caused by changes in the normal activity of very sensitive brain cells. Dementia seriously interferes with a person's ability to carry out daily activities. Dementia is irreversible - it cannot be cured. However, there are many conditions with symptoms that seem like dementia but aren't. These reversible conditions can be caused by problems such as a high fever, poor nutrition, a bad reaction to a medicine, or a minor head injury. Although not dementia, medical problems like these can be serious and should be treated by a doctor as soon as possible.

    Extractions: PDF Version Search Send-to-Friend Health Library Home ... Journal Notes by Laurie LaRusso, MS, ELS Research has suggested that antioxidants may help protect brain cells from Alzheimers disease, but the results of various studies appear to contradict each other. Antioxidants, such as vitamin E, occur naturally in a variety of fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, and nuts. They are believed to fight disease by protecting the body's cells from damage. Now, research published in the June 26, 2002 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) suggests that eating foods rich in vitamin E may reduce your risk of developing Alzheimers disease. Researchers from Chicagos Rush-Presbyterian-St. Lukes Medical Center analyzed data on 815 men and women age 65 or older in the Chicago Health and Aging Project. These people all lived on the south side of Chicago and were free of any form of dementia”including Alzheimers disease”when they entered the study between 1993 and 1997. Upon entering the study, participants underwent medical and mental status examinations and answered questions about medical history and lifestyle habits. Between one and two years later, they completed dietary questionnaires.

    Extractions: Recent findings displayed a higher prevalence of Alzheimer's disease in elderly African-Americans and Japanese living in the United States than those still living in their homelands. These findings lead scientists to hypothesize that diet is a key factor in the development of Alzheimer's disease. To test this hypothesis, researcher William B. Grant analyzed data from 18 different studies involving populations of people 65+ years of age from 11 countries. This information was compared to components of the national diet of each country. The study found that high fat and high calorie diets have the highest correlation with Alzheimer's disease prevalence rates. Other high risk factors include alcohol, salt, and refined carbohydrates. In addition, it was found that fish consumption reduced the incidence of Alzheimer's disease in European and North American countries. Grant speculated that anti-inflammatory substances in fish oil delay the onset of Alzheimer's disease.

    Extractions: A new population-based study of antioxidants, appearing in the June 26, 2002, "Journal of the American Medical Association" ("JAMA"), suggests that a diet rich in foods containing vitamin E may help protect some people against Alzheimer's disease (AD). The study is also noteworthy for its finding that vitamin E in the form of supplements was not associated with a reduction in the risk of AD. The latest in a series of reports on vitamin E and dementia, the study findings heighten interest in the outcome of clinical trials now underway to test the effectiveness of vitamin E and other antioxidants in preventing or postponing cognitive decline and AD. The "JAMA" study was conducted by Martha Clare Morris, Sc.D., of the Rush Institute for Healthy Aging at Rush-Presbyterian-St.Luke's Medical Center, Chicago, IL, Denis A. Evans, M.D., and colleagues. A related study by Morris and colleagues, "in press" in the July 2002 Archives of Neurology, a "JAMA" publication, also associates vitamin E with protection against more general cognitive decline. (Reporting of additional detail on this study is embargoed for July 14, 2002, 4 p.m. ET.) Both studies were supported by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) at the National Institutes of Health. The June 26 issue of "JAMA" includes similar findings from scientists in The Netherlands, who also reported a link between high dietary intake of vitamins C and E and protection against AD in certain people. In addition, the journal contains an editorial on the epidemiological study of dietary intake of antioxidants and the risk of AD by Daniel J. Foley, M.S., of the NIA's Laboratory of Epidemiology, Demography, and Biometry, and Lon White, M.D., Pacific Health Research Institute, Honolulu.

This animal study* could help researchers unravel the underlying biochemical mechanisms involved in another recent finding that concluded people with high blood levels of homocysteine have nearly twice the risk of developing the disease.** In the study, published in the March 1, 2002 issue of the "Journal of Neuroscience", the investigators fed one group of mice with Alzheimer's-like plaques in their brains a diet that included normal amounts of folate, while a second group was fed a diet deficient in this vitamin. These mice are transgenic, meaning they were bred with mutant genes that cause AD in people. They develop AD-like plaques in their brains that kill neurons.

Feeling sad, lonely, worried, or bored may be more common for older people facing retirement or coping with the death of a spouse, relative, or friend. Adapting to these changes leaves some people feeling confused or forgetful. Emotional problems can be eased by supportive friends and family, or by professional help from a doctor or counselor. Diagnosis Tests of blood and urine may be done to help the doctor find any problems. There are also tests of mental abilities (tests of memory, problem solving, counting, and language). A brain CT scan may assist the doctor in ruling out a curable disorder. A scan also may show signs of normal age related changes in the brain. It may be necessary to have another scan at a later date to see if there have been further changes in the brain. Treatment Many people with dementia need no medication for behavioral problems. But for some people, doctors may prescribe medications to reduce agitation, anxiety, depression, or sleeping problems. These troublesome behaviors are common in people with dementia. Careful use of doctor prescribed drugs may make some people with dementia more comfortable and make caring for them easier.

Most people find the lost item and then we remember putting our keys on the kitchen table to read the mail, or driving to a specific parking place, or leaving our coat in the car. If you have Alzheimer's disease you will find the lost item, but you don't recall how it ended up being in the kitchen, parking space or car. Alzheimer's disease affects 4.5 million Americans. With aging baby boomers and life expectancies increasing, the number could rise to almost 8 million in the next 25 years. Although family history may make you more likely to get Alzheimer's disease, your diet and your other medical conditions may also put you at risk. There are also some resources that are helpful if you have a family member or friend with Alzheimer's disease. What Is Alzheimer's Disease?

Researchers from the University of California Irvine released the results of study on the effects of estrogen on the course of Alzheimer's Disease. The results suggested that taking estrogen has no effect when administered to elderly women who have previously been diagnosed with the disease. Some previous studies had suggested that estrogen could improve the cognitive impairment that is the hallmark of the diseases. This study showed that for the women in the study taking estrogen had no effect on the progression of their disease. The study involved 120 elderly women (over age 75) who had previously been diagnosed with mild or moderate Alzheimer's disease. Alzheimer's is a progressive debilitating disease that affects more than 4 million people in the United States, twice as many women as men. It progresses from mild memory lapse to full dementia. Eventually the affected person will loose all cognitive function and become totally dependent. This study was just one of many that are ongoing in an attempt to find an effective treatment for this disease that mainly affects people over the age of 60.
