BEWARE OF DEMENTIA
Old
people may sometimes
be
forgetlul
and
"absent-minded".
However,
this is
perfectly normal for
the aging
process
and
no
undue
worries
are called
for.
There
is,
however,
a
lot that one can do
to
lessen the degree
of
"dementia".
ln
USA,
studies
showed
that
dementia
may
be related
to
a
low
blood
level of
omega-3
fatty
acids
(Decosahexaenoic
acid,
DHA). Others
lost
their
memory
due
to a
recent
stroke,
as
the artery
supplying the
brain
was
already
deranged.
Yet
others
were depressed, e.9., upon the
loss of the life-long partner, old people
could not
handle
it
anymore
and
gradually
lost contact with
friends
and
society.
The situation
is
worse with
the
illiterate.
Take
food
rich
in
anti-oxidants,
e.9.,
vitamin C,
E, etc.
These would prevent the
damaging
action
of the
free radicals.
Consider
omega-3 supplements or take
more
fish
rich in
DHA,
e.9.,
sardines,
salmons,
etc.
Even animal livers,
kidneys and brains have good DHA but
beware of their cholesterol
content.
Psychological management
is
also
paramount.
For
women,
the
replace-
ment
of female
hormone may also
help
-
always do it
upon
the advice of
your doctor.
