When your cognitive screen does not show cause from possible disease such as Alzheimer’s, we suggest a screening that observes lifestyle causes.
Conditions that happened during your childhood, adolescence, and adulthood can affect how your brain develops. Among these include:
Injuries to the head (such as hitting the head during sports activities)
Lack of regular physical activity, such as walking, running, swimming, dancing, or other active recreational pursuits
Too much TV or other physical inactivity as opposed to physically challenging activities
Not enough mentally challenging activities, such as reading material that makes you think, doing puzzles and games that pose challenging thought, participating in social situations that require you to adapt to unfamiliar situations (such as joining a special interest group, traveling to some place you’ve never been, researching your family tree, going to a lecture, or participating in a discussion group)
Various kinds of physical or emotional abuse
An unbalanced diet, particularly one that has a high proportion of processed foods and hydrogenated fats and a lower proportion of proteins, fruits, and vegetables
As many as 80% of people with MCI can result in dementia. Now is the time to act. Alzheimers has no cure. Right now, prevention is the best and only alternative.
