Dr Paul Clayton is asked 'Alzheimers - can I prevent it ?' Dementia / Alzheimers disease.

Dementia is common and becoming more so as our society ages. According to the Alzheimers Society, there are about 780,000 people with dementia in the UK, rising to 870,000 by 2010 and projected to be 1.8 million by 2050.

These are actually conservative estimates. Obesity and diabetes significantly increase the risk of dementia and Alzheimers. If current trends persist, dementia will affect 3 million people by 2050, including 1.5 million cases of Alzheimers disease. Quite apart from the personal costs, this is an expensive disease; the annual cost of Alzheimers in the UK is already pushing £3 billion.

Given that dementia, Alzheimers and the loss of brain cells seem inevitable aspects of the ageing process, these depressing figures seem to loom over all our futures if we live long enough. But should they?

I think not. Gerontologists now believe that we do not inevitably lose brain cells as we age. There are significant numbers of old and very old people who show no signs of intellectual dimming, and experimental studies have demonstrated that most if not all of the impact of ageing on the brain can be prevented by specific nutritional strategies.

However, before we begin to uncover the secret of retaining mental clarity into your 8th and 9th decades, a little brain biology is essential. There seem to be two quite distinct ways in which we are vulnerable to brain deterioration the first through the loss of fatty molecules called phospholipids and the second through a protein called beta amyloid and the quaintly named tau tangles!

Dr Paul Clayton has written three books,

'Health Defence',is in its 2nd edition, draws lessons from the worlds healthiest diets to define the ideal protective diet and supplement.

It spells out which foods can significantly reduce your risk of diabetes, stroke, heart disease and Alzheimers, and shows why so few Japanese women get breast cancer and so few Japanese men get prostate cancer.

It is probably the definitive book on how optimum nutrition can cut the risk of degenerative disease and how you can incorporate the most protective nutrients from the worlds healthiest diets into your own everyday diet.
An invaluable resource for those who want to improve their quality of life.
