Definitive cause of alzheimer still continue to be inspected. Diseases related to the brain can be prevented and delayed through preventive action.
Alzheimer disease is degenerative death due to brain cells and usually cause low intellectual or cognitive function. Alzheimer marked with the dead cells so that the resulting decrease in power and ability to remember and reflect changes in behavior. People will go down because the power and process thinking.
Due to disease, patients often show behavior easily forget or senile. In addition, patients also experience symptoms of Alzheimer forget the incident, among others, a new experience, difficulty in speaking, difficulty doing day-to-day, can not take the decision.
This disease is still mysterious because it is certainly still hold. How effective can be done to prevent Alzheimer’s with pull factors cause. Although these are not easy to put into practice, especially with the age factor.
The research results are very useful for preventive action Alzheimer. As research published the Journal of Neuroscience womb Omega 3 found in fish oil is able to play an important role in Alzheimer’s Disease prevention efforts.
Consumption of fish rich in Omega 3 fatty acid dokosaheksaenoat (DHA), fish such as tuna and salmon, can reduce the decline in cognitive performance in older people. In the brain, DHA will increase the production of LR11 and LR11 alzheimer decreased.
In addition, the LR11 is known that protein damage is able to form the plaque that causes alzheimer. Cole added alzheimer sufferer tends to have a protein in the brain called LR11 in the lower level.
Plaque made of protein called beta amyloidal will be a toxin in the brain cells. Able to measure increased LR11 prevent the formation of the toxin protein. The decrease in toxin can prevent someone suffering from this disease degenerative.
Alzheimer is a disease that causes neurodegenerative memory loss, dementia, personality change and eventually die. The Alzheimer’s Association United States 5.1 million people, this amount is certainly sad. In the year 2050 predicted will grow between 11 million to 16 million people.
Researchers tested the effect of adding DHA to the nerve growth in human and animals in the laboratory. “We find, though few will increase the DHA content LR11 in rat nerve. Meanwhile, Feed DHA increase LR11 in rat brain or older mice that risk and develop into Alzheimer’s Disease,” said the head of the researchers as well as Associate Director of UCLA’s Alzheimer Disease Research Center Greg Cole.
Such as fatty acid DHA is able to contribute to fatty acid is important for the body. However, the body can not produce itself and must follow to get to eat a certain pattern, such as fish oil consumption.
Research that took many years shows the fatty acid DHA is important that the brain is required. Cole added, the results of this research is also important for brain development of infants and the fetus.
In this study also mentioned the relationship between low DHA content in the brain may cause cognitive damage. In addition, the DHA content is low will increase the stress on the oxidation of Alzheimer brain.
