Diet and Alzheimers Disease ~ HGH Academy
Anti-Aging Perspective:
To lower our risk of getting Alzheimer’s disease, we must consume a diet that is rich in antioxidants. This includes lots of fruits and vegetables – organically grown is preferred. Our diet should be low in animal fats and should have at least five servings of fruits and vegetables per day. We can also eat more fish for its good fat and protective qualities. Vitamins B6, B12, and folic acid should also be taken as a daily supplement as they lower the homocysteine levels in our blood. If you are between the ages of 40 and 50, this diet will be especially helpful as it will lower your risk of getting Alzheimer's disease. Today, more and more people are getting Alzheimer's disease and more will be expected to do so in the very near future. It is therefore essential that we monitor our basic health markers, such as blood pressure, cholesterol, Lp(a), homocysteine, triglyceride, and glucose levels closely and regularly. It is also of equal importance to maintain a healthy weight near ideal body weight and an active lifestyle. HGH - Main Page

These changes include loss of brain tissue cells (with a typical upward progression through memory centers such as the entorhinal cortex and the hippocampus) and collection of specific inclusions such as neurofibrillary tangles and senile plaques. It is not yet certain whether these changes are primary (the cause of the disease) or secondary (the result of the disintegration of brain tissue). Alzheimer's disease is the most frequent reason for dementia in the elderly and affects almost half of all patients with dementia. There is no known definitive treatment, although there are drugs which enhance neutrotransmitter transmission which delay the memory loss associated with the disease. The disease was thought to be uncommon, until the 1960s when it was realized that much of what had been regarded as the normal process of aging was actually the result of this disease. Alzheimer's is considered to be a major public health challenge as a result of the aging population. Typically only 3% of persons aged 65 show signs of the disease while 50% of persons aged 85 have symptoms of Alzheimer's. However the proportion of persons with Alzheimer's begins to decrease after age 85 because of the increased mortality due to the disease, and relatively few people over the age of 100 have the disease.

High Calorie Diets may increase risk of Alzheimer's
A diet high in calories and fat may increase the risk of Alzheimer's disease in people who are genetically susceptible to the disorder, new preliminary research suggests. The study found that people who consumed the most calories and fat faced double the risk of developing Alzheimer's. The findings, which are reported in this month's Archives of Neurology, are the latest evidence that lifestyle factors including diet may play a role in Alzheimer's. It is thought that restricting calories may slow the aging process by reducing production of cell-damaging oxygen molecules called free radicals, formed during the body's breakdown of food. The latest study, though preliminary, suggests that for some people, calorie restriction might lower Alzheimer's risks by curbing nerve-cell death in the brain. Diet Advice
A balanced diet coupled with regular exercise is still the best way to lose weight and reduce fat.

General Info about Alzheimer's Disease "If any one faculty of our nature may be called more wonderful than the rest, I do think it is memory. There seems something more speakingly incomprehensible in the powers, the failures, the inequalities of memory, than in any other of our intelligences," wrote Jane Austen, the English writer. This most wonderful gift, if you loose, can make your life chaotic.
The enduring disorder in memory retention is known as Alzheimer's disease. Generally, the disease affects the brain tissues after one reaches forty years. Once affected, Alzheimer's gradually destroys the ability to reason, remember, imagine and learn. It is marked by abnormal clumps (plaques) and irregular knots (neurofibrillary tangles) of brain cells. For reasons not well understood, these plaques and tangles take over healthy brain tissues, devastating the areas of the brain associated with intellectual function.
  "Alzheimer's can be called the long good-bye. You grieve about the loved one from the moment you begin to observe the gradual loss of memory and the speech and personality changes, because they are incurable. The person you love is gradually changing before your eyes. You say good-bye many times until the final good-bye at death."

The most common form of dementia among older people is Alzheimer's disease (AD), which involves the parts of the brain that control thought, memory, and language. Although scientists are learning more every day, right now they still do not know what causes AD, and there is no cure. Scientists think that as many as 4.5 million Americans suffer from AD. The disease usually begins after age 60, and risk goes up with age. While younger people also may get AD, it is much less common. About 5 percent of men and women ages 65 to 74 have AD, and nearly half of those age 85 and older may have the disease. It is important to note, however, that AD is not a normal part of aging. AD is named after Dr. Alois Alzheimer, a German doctor. In 1906, Dr. Alzheimer noticed changes in the brain tissue of a woman who had died of an unusual mental illness. He found abnormal clumps (now called amyloid plaques) and tangled bundles of fibers (now called neurofibrillary tangles). Today, these plaques and tangles in the brain are considered signs of AD.

This animal study 1 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 Alzheimers-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.

Does Diet Affect Alzheimer's Disease Risk?
February 18, 2003 One study reports that vitamins C and E and carotenes do not decrease the risk of Alzheimer's disease, a progressive, neurodegenerative disease that occurs in the brain and often results in the following:
  • impaired memory, thinking, and behavior confusion restlessness personality and behavior changes impaired judgment impaired communication inability to follow directions language deterioration impaired visiospatial skills emotional apathy
Both studies, which were funded by the National Institute on Aging , part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) , appear in a recent issue of the Archives of Neurology "One of the things we're hoping for at the National Institute on Aging ," says Marcelle Morrison-Bogorad, associate director of the institute's Neuroscience and Neuropsychology of Aging Program, "is that eventually in our attempts to slow the development of Alzheimer's we will have a combination of lifestyle changes plus very directed, specific drugs that together will give us a chance of really fighting this dreadful disease." In the study on vitamins, researchers followed 980 elderly patients for four years who did not have dementia at the outset of the study. The participants answered questionnaires about their eating habits at the beginning of the study and several times throughout the four-year period.

Monday, 1 March 1999
Doctors in Tasmania are looking into a link between Alzheimers disease and diet.
They have found patients with Alzheimers are more at risk of developing heart disease and stroke and think following a healthy diet may be the key.
Dr George Razay from Launceston General Hospital has found the same abnormalities in the blood of Alzheimers patients as those with heart disease.
Both groups had lower levels of good cholesterol and fatty acids and high levels of insulin.
He says one way of warding off Alzheimers is to reduce the risk of heart disease.
"Basically healthy diet which is rich in polyunsaturated fatty acid and regular exercise can improve these vascular risk factors and might help to reduce the risk of Alzheimers," Dr Razay said.

MARK COLVIN: Finally tonight, there's new hope in the treatment of Alzheimers Disease. Researchers have discovered a link between the illness and diet. Up until now Alzheimers was considered simply to be part of the aging process. But researchers at Oxford University have found that food rich in folic acid and vitamin B12 could significantly reduce the prevalence of the disease.
Professor David Smith, who was in charge of the latest study, will unveil his findings at the Alzheimers Association's national conference in Perth this week. Adrienne Lowth reports.

Archives of Neurology Alzheimer's Association CHICAGO, Illinois (AP) Some dietary fats might help prevent Alzheimer's disease, others may increase the risk and contrary to some reports antioxidant vitamins may have no effect on the mind-robbing ailment, two studies suggest. The study on fats adds to growing evidence that the same type of diet that protects the heart may benefit the brain. Data are more mixed on effects on Alzheimer's of antioxidants such as vitamins C and E and beta-carotene, although recent studies have suggested a potential benefit, and scientists say a link makes biological sense. The discrepancy may be explained by different study characteristics, say authors of the latest antioxidant research, from Columbia University. Their study, which found no effect from consuming antioxidants, involved older people who might have been less susceptible to the vitamins' purported benefits, and subjects were followed for a shorter period.

CHICAGO, Illinois (AP) Diabetes might significantly increase the risk of developing Alzheimer's, a study of 824 nuns, priests and Roman Catholic brothers found, bolstering the evidence linking the two diseases. The participants in the study were 55 and older when the research began and were followed for an average of about six years. Alzheimer's developed in 151 participants, including 31 who had diabetes. The researchers calculated that diabetics faced a 65 percent increased risk of developing the mind-robbing disease. The link remained strong even when the researchers factored in the prevalence of strokes, which are a common complication of diabetes and are also believed to raise the risk of Alzheimer's. Previous research has linked diabetes with memory problems, and diabetes is known to damage blood vessels that supply the brain. But studies looking specifically at diabetes and Alzheimer's have had conflicting results.

Prevent or Delay Alzheimer's Disease
By Phyllis Staff, Ph.D.
Argh! Where are my glasses? I put them down . . . to do what? And when?
As the daughter of an Alzheimer's patient, this inability to keep up with everyday items, like my glasses and car keys, drives me absolutely nuts! Absent-mindedness has always plagued me. Now, it keeps me anxious and guessing. Is this an early sign of Alzheimer's disease? Could I end up like my father, crippled with this disease? I decided to stop worrying about it and act!
I searched the latest literature to see what techniques (no prescriptions, thank you!) could prevent or delay the onset of Alzheimer's disease. Here are some of the things I found.
Diet Counts!
Vitamin E
Diets rich in vitamin E and essential oils may help prevent Alzheimer's disease. A study recently reported in the Archives of Neurology (2002) found that participants, aged 65-102, who ate fish at least once each week showed 36% less decline in cognitive functioning over the study's three+ years. Similar results have been found in the Rotterdam Study, a study tracking over 9000 participants. Those researchers found that participants who ate fish most often were only one-third as likely to develop Alzheimer's Disease as those who ate fish least often. These studies provide compelling reasons to add at least one meal of fish to your diet every week.
What other foods should you include? Olive oil is an especially valuable source of vitamin E and other anti-oxidants. I prefer the extra virgin variety of olive oil for its milder taste. With a squeeze of fresh lime juice, olive oil makes a very pleasant salad dressing. And I've discovered that the more I use it, the more I like it.

http://www.ucheepines.org/alzheimers.htm
ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE Five to ten percent of people over the age of 85 have Alzheimer's disease. A smaller percentage of those under 65 are affected with it. Strongly implicated in this dreaded disease is aluminum. Aluminum is the commonest metal on the earth's crust and, after oxygen and selenium, the most abundant element on earth. It comes in bauxite ore. Fifty years ago the widespread use of this metal became common. And for many more years, aluminum salts have been used for pickling vegetables. We now find it in tap water, antacids, antiperspirants, and many other places. Dialysis patients go mad, have trouble talking, confusion, muscle spasms, become helpless, demented, bedridden, and die. The large amounts of tap water from cities using aluminum for flocculation procedures apparently caused these patients to have their difficulty. These patients routinely swallow large amounts of aluminum in antacids to prevent the build-up of phosphorus in their blood. Dialysis dementia is a common complication of dialysis. Aluminum attaches itself to blood protein and gains easy entry to the brain.
In Guam, soil and water is low in calcium and magnesium, and especially high in aluminum. There is much Lou Gehrig's and Parkinson's disease in Guam. Aluminum is high in the neurofibrillary tangles.

Experts Probe Link Between Diet, Alzheimer's
Sunday April 26, 1998
The Sunday Telegraph The Sunday Times (Britain)
Scientists will unveil research this week that suggests a simple change in diet could protect millions of people from Alzheimer's disease, British newspapers reported on Sunday. The reports said the international team believes a simple supplement of folic acid which is found in many green vegetables and can be taken as a vitamin tablet could shelter potential sufferers against the debilitating disease, the main cause of senile dementia. "It is a very promising finding," the Sunday Telegraph quoted one of the research team, Professor Helga Refsum of Norway's Bergen University, as saying. "We need something to go for, and the idea of reducing the risk of Alzheimer's disease by diet is a promising hypothesis." Refsum stressed that the results had so far only revealed an association, not a direct cause and effect, and pointed out that many older people suffer from conditions that can be exacerbated by taking folic acid. The research is to be unveiled at an international scientific conference in the Netherlands this week.
