ues-

Dear
Bar ,
tri-
tionally speak-
ing, is there
anything I can
do to either
prevent or mitigate the threat of
Alzheimer's? Thanks, Joe.

A

nswer: Dear Joe, Alzheim-
er's is a neurodegenerative
disease—a progressive
brain disorder that gradually
destroys a person's cognitive func-
tions. It is the most common form
of dementia. Currently, there is no
medical cure for Alzheimer's.

The #1 risk factor for Alzheimer's
is increasing age. At age 65 your
risk is 1.5% and doubles roughly
every 5 years thereafter.

4_ Other risk factors are
family history, genetics,
head injury, environmen-
tal, heart health (blood
pressure, heart disease,
stroke, diabetes and high
cholesterol), and general
health/well-being issues.

I recommend you focus
on things within your
control, i.e., maintain
proper weight, avoid to-
bacco, limit alcohol, and
reduce saturated fat/cholesterol in-
take. Also, eat more dark-skinned
fruits/vegetables (highest antioxi-
dant levels), cold-water fish (high
in omega-3 fatty acids) and nuts/
seeds high in vitamin E. Nutrient
supplements E, C, B12, folate (folic
acid), and omega-3 fish oil may be
helpful. Last, but not least, stay
socially connected and mentally
and physically active. Your doctor
or nutritionist can help.
