Senility or dementia may be the thing that can be tolerated for the elderly. But
when dementia is in the category of 'very severe' and affect the
personality, behavior and activity, certainly worth a watch because it
could be what is experienced by Alzheimer's dementia.
Alzheimer's dementia is kind of a 'terrible' because it can paralyze the mind and intelligence. This situation is indicated by the decline of intellectual and emotional functions are progressively and slowly so that interfere with everyday social activities.
According to dr. Samino, SpS (K), Chairman of the Alzheimer's Association of Indonesia (AAzI), Alzheimer's disease result from degeneration of the brain neuron cells in the area temporo-parietal and frontal. "Alzheimer's Dementia is a brain killer because the deadly disease of brain cells function," he said in the education about Alzheimer some time ago.
They are vulnerable to Alzheimer's dementia is the elderly above 60 years old, but young adults are also not covered kemungkinab if you have risk factors for offspring. In fact, according Samino, Alzheimer's dementia patients aged 40 years had been found in Indonesia.

Early
detection is crucial in overcoming Alzheimer's, but the fact is often
difficult because of the setback gelaja often regarded as an ordinary
thing. Patients
usually only show the usual symptoms such as forgetting, but then
developed severe and progressive worsening of cognitive function and
other mental functions.
Initial awkwardness is usually felt by the patient themselves, they are difficult to remember or forget to put the name of an item. They also often cover-up about it and convince yourself that it is not unusual at their age.
Discrepancy will usually be felt by the people around them who began to worry about memory loss. They initially do not suspect a major problem behind the dementia experienced by the patient, but then realized that the condition is severe.
Well, so Alzhemier dementia can be prevented early on, here are some signs or symptoms should be wary of the possibility of the presence of the killer disease of the brain:

Well, so Alzhemier dementia can be prevented early on, here are some signs or symptoms should be wary of the possibility of the presence of the killer disease of the brain:
- The decline of memory / memory.
- Hard to carry out the activities / simple job
- Speech and language difficulties.
- Disorientation WTO (Time - Place - People)
- Hard numeracy
- One place the object
- Look bad for forgetting to get dressed or decorated
- Changes in emotion and behavior.
- Impaired abstract thinking. The ability of patients with disturbed imagination.
- Lost interest and initiative. Tends to be quiet, do not want to hang out, alone.
- Unable to distinguish different types of odors (without other causes such as flu, brain trauma, brain tumor).
How to avoid Alzheimer's disease?
Drinking a cup of tea regularly can help improve your memory.Researchers from Newcastle University found both green and black tea inhibit the activity of key enzymes in the brain associated with memory.
Researchers hope their findings, published in Phytotherapy Research, which lead to the development of new treatments for Alzheimer's Disease. The team found that tea may have the same effect with a drug designed specifically to combat the condition.
Alzheimer disease is triggered when the chemical acetylcholine found in the brain is reduced, and partially reduced acetylcholine acetylcholinesterase, and the researchers found that green and black tea to stop this activity.
Both teas inhibited the activity of the enzyme butyrylcholinesterase (Buche), which have been discovered in protein deposits found in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's. More green tea inhibit the activity of beta-secretase, which plays a role in the production of protein deposits in the brain associated with Alzheimer's disease. The scientists also found that the still influential inhibitif for a week, while the properties of black tea inhibit the enzyme-lasts only for one day.
There is no cure for Alzheimer's but it's possible to slow the progression of the disease, a drug currently used to inhibit the activity of AChE, and others are being developed which scientists hope will inhibit the activity of beta-secretase and Buche. This drug has serious side effects, so the researchers developed a treatment to another.
The research team is now seeking more funds to continue the tests on green tea, which they hope will include clinical trials, the goal is to work towards the development of medicinal teas are specifically aimed at Alzheimer's sufferers.
