Dr. Volodymyr Eni-Olorunda talked about the nature of Alzheimer's disease, as well as some early alarm bells that can be recognized in time.
The nature of Alzheimer's disease is still not fully understood and researched. With 100% proven facts, it is inherited.
"In the vast majority of cases, it is diagnosed after reaching the age of 65, sometimes it develops in the age range of 45-60 years. Cases of the disease in young people are isolated and caused by a gene mutation. The first "bell" - memory impairment - gives reason to be wary at any age," says the expert.
The lack of intellectual and mental work, which is a simulator for our brain, seriously increases the risks of dementia and memory impairment.
As a rule, people do not notice the first symptoms of Alzheimer's and ignore them for a long time. One of these bells is absent-mindedness (forgetting where I was going and why).
Also, in the first stages, activity and interest in life in general may decrease. A person can neglect the norms of behavior and rules of hygiene.
Have you noticed that sometimes it is difficult for the interlocutor to choose the words to express his thoughts? This can also be one of the warning signs that should not be ignored.
Difficulty learning new information, forgetfulness, mood swings, apathy, unreasonable anger, and irritability are typical signs of Alzheimer's disease.
In the elderly, such a symptom as loss in time and space is often observed. They can leave home and forget the address, get lost. This is how dementia manifests itself.
