Lao Wang has been unable to find what he has put in recently, and has rummaged through the whole house like a bull's horn. His wife, Lao Li, also gradually realized that something was wrong, and every once in a while he forgot what he had just said, and often did some unpredictable actions. Although Lao Wang himself felt that he was not the same as before, he didn't want to admit that it was a problem of old age. The old two ** argued word by word, and the atmosphere became more and more tense. Lao Li quietly told his son that he was worried about whether Lao Wang had any disease, not the Alzheimer's disease that made everyone talk about it.
After hearing this, my son was also very worried, he had seen the news and knew that there were more and more Alzheimer's patients. So he took his father to the hospital for a check-up. The results showed that Lao Wang was indeed in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease, and it was said that it was closely related to his daily habits.
At this juncture when the family is facing a crisis, the son begins to search for information, hoping to find ways to help his father improve his memory and slow down the worsening of his symptoms. The family was a little overwhelmed by the sudden news, and they couldn't even believe it was true. What methods can they use to resist this invisible enemy? Faced with such a situation, my son found a "brain strengthening strategy" about preventing and alleviating Alzheimer's disease. He was amazed to find that seemingly inconspicuous habits, such as the first thing in the morning, could be related to the maintenance and decline of people's brain power. Today, what I want to share with you is the content of this strategy, let's take a look at what aspects should be started to grasp this battle with Alzheimer's.
In the Japanese Journal of Human Science for Health Social Services, a six-year study has cleared the fog of our understanding. Studies have shown that breakfast habits are directly related to the development of Alzheimer's disease. Imagine skipping breakfast and Alzheimer's disease, where there is a four-fold difference in risk.
The question is, does it matter if you eat breakfast, what you eat, and how you eat it? Don't worry, let's take a closer look at the answer to this question. First, we're going to talk about what makes a good breakfast. It's not just about eating anything to fill your stomach, in our guide, there are specific food recommendations.
We want starchy staple foods that can be converted into glucose, which is essential for body and brain activity, and which is the workhorse of energy. Whole grains like whole wheat bread, corn, sweet potatoes, etc., are good choices. High-quality protein** is also essential, and adding milk, eggs, legumes or meat to breakfast will not only brighten our minds, but will also keep you feeling full for a long time so you won't be distracted by hunger. Then, don't forget fresh fruits and vegetables and nuts in moderation. These foods contain vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that help keep our bodies in tip-top shape. If you want to talk about the pairing of breakfast, it can be an omelet with vegetables and milk, or soy milk with nuts, or multigrain porridge with eggs and fresh side dishes.
In addition to breakfast, there are also some good habits to deal with Alzheimer's disease when it comes to activities after waking up every day. Simple finger exercises and head massages, or even a cup of coffee in the morning, have been shown to help wake up the brain and prevent aging. Finally, we would like to mention socializing and dancing, two activities that give the brain a new lease of life. Harvard research tells us that it's not that people get older and need to be alone. Getting together with friends, going on a garden tour or playing chess together is very good for the brain. At the same time, dancing regularly not only activates the muscles and bones, but also keeps the brain young at all times.
So, through these adjustments to daily activities, can we effectively slow down or even prevent Alzheimer's disease? More importantly, can these methods be replicated in the family as a more common way of life? What is the logic behind this strategy, and what will be the profound impact it will have on people's lives? We'll reveal the answers to these questions so that every family can have a healthier, more active brain.
