The chemical hormone released during stress becomes
the reason for Alzheimer’s disease or the loss of memory. Several organs become
weak with old age, but in Alzheimer’s disease the functions of the mind become
less and the memory may disappear altogether. It is the disease of the mind.

The higher levels of the chemical hormone released
in stress remaining as such for longer duration destroy the neuron cells which
help in memory functions.
Sleeping Posture
The recent researches reveal that side sleeping
reduces the risks of Alzheimer’s disease. The flat sleeping posture or sleeping
on backside down or up, increases the risks of neurological diseases like
Alzheimer’s or Parkinson's The harmful
chemicals get properly flushed out from the brain in side sleeping. The
disturbed sleep or on getting disturbed during sleeping increases the risks of
loss of memory. The sleeping posture also plays an important role.
Copper in Diet
The amount of copper in diet also increases the
risks of Alzheimer’s disease. The increased level of copper in blood than the
optimum levels is responsible for the problem. The presence of copper affects
the beta amyloid in the brain and causes the Alzheimer’s disease. The amount of
copper is fixed for each age group. The liver is not capable to digest the
increased levels of copper and the increased amount of copper goes into the
blood and reaches the brain. The copper binding protein present in the brain is
known as beta amyloid. This protein starts getting accumulating in the brain
and the symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease appear and the patient starts
forgetting everything.
Food reducing the risks of Alzheimer’s disease
Certain foods reduce the risks of the disease due to
the presence of several healthy contents in them.
Blueberry
It contains rich amounts of antioxidants which saves
the cells from the damages caused by the free radicals. It also maintains the
balance between the cells of the body and age of the person.
Tomato
It is full of lycopene which saves the cells from
the several damages and reduces the risks of Alzheimer’s disease.
Eggs
Eggs contain vitamin B 12 and and colognee, which form
the cells of the brain and help to increase the memory.
Broccoli
The nutrients and vitamins in broccoli increase the
memory and neutralize the effects of excess copper in the blood.
Curd
The amino acid present in curd reduces the stress.
It is the stress that causes the premature ageing of cells including the memory
cells and neurons.
