BRAIN DISEASES



Today, I am going to discuss something about Brain Diseases. The two most serious diseases are stroke and Alzheimer’s disease. Most strokes can be thought of as “brain attacks”- like heart attacks, but the rupturing plaques in your arteries cut off blood flow to parts of the brain rather than to parts of the heart. Alzheimer’s is more like a mind attackAlzheimer’s disease is one of the most physically and emotionally burden-some diseases, for both sufferers and caregivers. In my point of view, I am more scared of Alzheimer’s disease than I am of cancer. Yes. It isn’t just because of psychological toll to come for the patient but because of the emotional toll that would be placed on loved ones.While the pathology of Stroke and Alzheimer’s disease are different, one key factor that unites them: Mounting evidence suggests that a healthy diet may help prevent them both.


USUALLY NEGLECTED SYMPTOMS OF BRAIN DISEASES

We often neglect something like headache, pain in shoulder, fatigue etc. But have we ever thought that these may be symptoms of big diseases? Today's post is about symptoms of brain disease and how preventable diseases can become fatal on lack of recognition!One of the earliest signs of neuro or brain degeneration is fatigue, most specifically brain-based fatigue.
When you start to get symptoms of tremors, changes in ability to walk, difficulty in speaking, very poor balance then you have a more progressed level of brain impairment.
By understanding that brain changes can be detected way before of clinical development such as Dementia an Alzheimer's, these conditions can be prevented. After all, they all are PREVENTABLE DISEASES.

Symptoms of brain-based fatigue are things like getting tired when you drive, or getting tired when you read. Basically, getting tired when using the brain to do some sort of activity.Overtime, you may start to lose your memory, lose your balance, lose your ability to perform well in sports or you can't concentrate or even see the changes in your handwriting. These are symptoms of early degeneration.

THE KEY POINT TO PREVENTION IS EARLY RECOGNITION. Once the brain damage has gone too far, then even curable disease become fatal.

In my next post I am going to discuss what exactly ALZHEIMER'S Disease and Stroke are and how such fatal diseases can be prevented.
