it's easy to treat depression but to treat it effectively is as difficult as effectively treating demential

I have sarcoidosis, controlled high blood pressure, mild C.P. on my right side. Also pre diabetic. My sister is a long time vegan. She swims, hikes, bikes ... And she has the early onset of dementia. I have all the other issues. But at almost 67 years of age, I am still kicking! You do the best you can, nothing else seems to matter much to me. Staying positive is also a plus. My sister is 69. I can't remember the last time she has touched a dessert, or anything with preservatives. One just doesn't know what's next. Hopefully, they'll figure out a effective treatment for the disease soon.

Supplement with PQQ and a quality fish oil too. PQQ is a powerful, interesting antioxidant like agent.

I am working on four of these thanks 😂

He says nothing about Statins that can cause death and when it causes a heart attack they just up your statins to more? Forget about a brain working but its a money maker so he just would not want to go there the more the people don't know the more the profits when its problaby the worse one for the brain. Give him a peanut or a rock for his good deeds of information.

I am pretty good at what you've said but all my friends have moved to the next town. I 'm one that needs a couple around but my husband won't move. The problem is we have no real friends here anymore. Things have changed so much.

I'm living alone, but I have a little Rescue dog who I walk every day, and although I have No friends near me at all, I often pass the same people most days, who are out walking Their dogs too, and we usually say hello, and have a little chat, it breaks the day up a little for me. Is that something you could consider doing? If you don't want to actually get your own dog, perhaps you might be able to Foster one for a local animal shelter near you, until it gets a Forever Home. It could help you a Lot.

I do all of these but what I'm curious is, does maintaining your brain at constant stress (like intensely studying) is a good or bad thing? I mean, when I was in college I studied so so hard to squeeze knowledge it gave me all sort of anxieties. Now I'm 54 and still has the habit of not just casually learning things but studying something new with a goal (a degree or a certificate on the subject) to the point of giving the same anxieties (which I feel as something good! Just like exercise you got a sweat or you're just cheating.) Then I see my peers just going about life in a robotic routine way without, for instance, pretty much NEVER picking a book to read. And sometimes I wonder which one is heathier brainwise.

My grandfather looks like he’s progressing into the early stage, occasionally blaming and accusing others of doing stuff, especially me, even when I’m the one who surprisingly is the one who cares for him the most (I’m the grandson).He loses his temper at my grandma easily. One moment he’s being unreasonable, the other moment he’s feeling remorseful. My dad is done with him and is being so rude to him and thus I have to make him feel better. When I do everything with him, there are more things he can blame and accuse me of (example not telling him something when I literally said it 20 times throughout the whole day) and even trying to use threats like (I won’t come anymore). What should I do?
