Alzheimer's is a heart breaking disease and you need to educate yourself.

clipped from diseasealzheimers.com Disease Alzheimer’s can be particularly difficult to diagnose. In fact, an Alzheimer’s diagnoses cannot be confirmed until after death, when the brain can be autopsied and shown to possess damage on a cellular level. The first difficulty in achieving diagnoses can be the patient themselves. Patients often attribute the symptoms of Alzheimer’s to simply “getting old,” or in most cases, they may be unaware of the changes in their behavior. When a patient does approach their doctor about memory problems, the doctor must sift through all the evidence to determine if Alzheimer’s disease is present, or if it is one of the numerous conditions that produce similar symptoms. Despite the fact that doctors must rule in Alzheimer’s after they have ruled everything else out, diagnoses of the disease are consider to be close to 90% accurate. Anyway, you have to know what is Alzheimer’s.

clipped from strongbodies.net You always hear experts recommending that you drink more water but how many of you actually do it? And how much is enough? Well, check out this chart below for some interesting data on water loss. Water Loss/ Normal Weather No exercise/ Warm Weather No exercise /Exercise in Warm Weather (85° F) Skin 350 mL/ 350 mL/ 350 mL Respiratory Tract 250 mL/ 350 mL/ 650 mL Urine 1400 mL/ 1200 mL/ 500 mL Feces 100 mL/ 100 mL/ 100 mL Sweat 100 mL/ 1400 mL/ 5000 mL Total 2,300 mL (2.3L)/ 3,300 mL (3.3L)/ 6,600 mL (6.6L) It should be clear that quite a bit of water is lost per day, especially if you’re an athlete. Since most people can get about 1.5L of water from their food and from metabolic water production, for a margin of safety, I suggest: Sedentary individuals drink at least 2L or about 8 cups of water per day Athletes in normal climates drink at least 3L or about 12 cups of water per day. Athletes in hot weather climates drink at least 4L or about 16 cups of water per day.

clipped from www.bloomberg.com June 9 (Bloomberg) -- Middle-aged smokers are more likely to have poorer memories and reasoning abilities than those who've never smoked habitually, according to a study published in the Archives of Internal Medicine. Researchers in France and England also found smokers drank more alcohol, ate less fruit and vegetables and had higher cholesterol levels than non-smokers. The results are from a 17- year-long study of more than 5,300 people. The findings add weight to evidence of a link between smoking and dementia, and may even underestimate the extent to which the two are related because smokers were more likely to not participate in follow-up tests or to have died over the course of the study, the authors wrote. The researchers found smokers were 54 percent more likely than non-smokers to be in the lowest 20 percent of subjects on a memory test, and equally likely to flunk a test of verbal and mathematical reasoning.

clipped from healthy-detox.net In an American society where fast food, processed meat, bleached enriched flour and high fructose corn syrup rule the roost, it’s no wonder that the vast majority of Americans are headed for Type II diabetes. Type II is the diabetes that people acquire from long-term poor eating habits. This nutritional trend is also contributing to the epidemic of obesity in our nation. Luckily, the Atkins diet offers a solution that addresses both issues. It offers a way to delay, even prevent the acquired disease as well as weight loss. The Atkins diet was designed to assist individuals wanting to lose weight, reduce cholesterol levels or control blood sugar fluctuations. The Atkins diet emphasizes a high protein, low carb diet. Carbohydrates have the most impact on blood-sugar levels. Depending on how efficiently they are metabolized, a carbohydrate is ranked with either high or low-glycemic index. The higher the rank, the more insulin the pancreas has to produce to convert the sugar to energy.
