The sad reality of Alzheimer's....

..... is that 50% of all baby boomers will develop the disease. I am so glad that is not going to happen to any of you who read my newsletters and follow some simple advice
 
Get 8 -10 hours of sleep a night. Before Thomas Edison developed the light bulb, people slept an average of 10 hours a night. A lack of sleep has been shown clinically to reduce neural plasticity. The brain can't grow new cells and rebuild itself. Remember, on the 7th day even God rested.
 
B Complex
This supplement supplies significant amounts of water- soluble B vitamins. They are important for the support of the adrenal hormone production, regulation and the body's own production of energy through its enhancement of Coenzyme A production.

Until recently the standard medical belief was that we were born with a certain number of brain cells that would slowly die off and never be replaced resulting in a gradual mental decline usually ending in senility. In fact, "Benign forgetfulness of old age" remained a formal diagnosis.
Well let me tell you, you can forget all of that. Advances in brain imaging genetics and neuroscience now show that our body continues to create new brain cells throughout life. Also the neurons in our brains continue to change, develop and forge new connections even as we age. We actually have physical changes in our brain every time we learn something new. This evoking adaptability is called "Neuroplasticity". Some scientists believe that Dementia and Alzheimer's occurs when the brain loses this ability to grow and change. I think other causes include aluminum, lead and Aspartame (nutra-sweet) poisoning.
