World Alzheimer's Disease Day ✨🎙️

🔵 World Alzheimer's Disease Day takes place every year (on 21 of September ) , So today we will focus on this disease .

🔺Alzheimer’s disease is the most common type of dementia which is a progressive disease beginning with mild memory loss and possibly leading to loss of the ability to carry on a conversation and respond to the environment.

🔺Alzheimer’s disease involves parts of the brain that control thought, memory, and language and It can seriously affect a person’s ability to carry out daily activities.

🔺Risk Factors:

1. Age is the best known risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease.

2. Family history—researchers believe that genetics may play a role in developing Alzheimer’s disease.

3. Researchers are studying whether diet, and environment play a role in developing Alzheimer’s disease.

4. There is growing scientific evidence that healthy behaviors, which have been shown to prevent cancer, diabetes, and heart disease, may also reduce risk for subjective cognitive decline.

🔺Clinical Picture:

In addition to memory problems, someone with symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease may experience one or more of the following:

1. Memory loss that disrupts daily life, such as getting lost in a familiar place or repeating questions.

2. Difficulty completing familiar tasks at home, at work or at leisure.

3. Decreased or poor judgment.
Misplacing things and being unable to retrace steps to find them.

4. Language impairment.

5. Changes in mood, personality, or behavior.

🔺Prevention:

🔵 There is growing evidence that people who adopt healthy lifestyle habits — like regular exercise and blood pressure management — can lower their risk of dementia.

🔵 There is growing scientific evidence that healthy behaviors, which have been shown to prevent cancer, diabetes, and heart disease, may also reduce risk for subjective cognitive decline.
