Identify and Reduce your Risks of Memory Loss and Dementia

Identify and Reduce your Risks of Memory Loss and Dementia

THE MEMORY RESCUE PROGRAM-
The best way to sharpen your memory, reverse brain aging, and prevent Alzheimer’s disease and other dementia is to eliminate, prevent, or treat the 11 major risk factors that steal your mind, represented by the mnemonic (a memory device) BRIGHT MINDS.

See how many of the following BRIGHT MINDS risk factors you have.

B – Blood flow problems: hypertension or pre-hypertension, stroke, cardiovascular disease, cholesterol problems, erectile dysfunction, exercising less than twice a week
R – Retirement/Aging: risk increases with age (over 50); a lack of new learning is another important risk factor—when you stop learning, your brain starts dying
I – Inflammation: gum disease, high homocysteine or C-reactive protein blood levels, low omega-3 fatty acids
G – Genetics: a family member with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia or Parkinson’s disease, or having the Apo E4 gene
H – Head trauma: a history of head injuries with or without loss of consciousness; playing contact sports (even without a concussion)
T – Toxins: alcohol or drug abuse, exposure to toxins in the environment (toxic mold, pollution) or personal products, cancer chemotherapy, etc.
M – Mental health issues: chronic stress, depression, ADD/ADHD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia
I – Immunity/Infection Issues – chronic fatigue syndrome, autoimmune issues, such as rheumatoid arthritis or multiple sclerosis; or untreated infections, such as Lyme disease
N – Neurohormone imbalances: low thyroid, testosterone (males and females), estrogen and progesterone (females), low DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone), high cortisol
D – Diabesity: diabetes, pre-diabetes, and obesity
S – Sleep problems: chronic insomnia and sleep apnea

​The good news is that almost all of these risk factors are either preventable or treatable. Even the ones that aren’t, such as having a family history of dementia, can be ameliorated with the right memory rescue program.
