Penicillin Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 The first trip I made to Thailand I realized this was a common affliction among tuk tuk drivers. They kept forgetting where my hotel was and somehow always ended up at a gem store or tailor shop. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wwest5829 Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I have told countrymen, an excellent test for dementia is to drive in Thailand. If your brain is not firing on all cylinders you are either in an accident or dead! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexRich Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 (edited) Dementia is a horrible condition that I wouldn’t wish on anyone ... I’m hoping my demise will be by way of a Mexican suicide, falling asleep on an armchair wearing a sombrero, and just not waking up.

I'm hoping for something similar but with a young Thai lady in place of the armchair. Drove into town yesterday to get some photos printed. Carefully transferred what I wanted onto my thumb drive, got to the photo printers, and discovered I had left the thumb drive at home, in my computer. How could I do that?

balo Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 My mom died of Alzheimers and it was not fun when she couldn't recognize me in the end before she died. I still believe you can prevent it or reduce the risks of getting it by eating the right food and regular exercise. She did not live a healthy life , no exercise and eat a lot of fat food , overweight and had problems with cholesterol etc. There's no guarantees but a healthy lifestyle might help. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Mcseismic Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Not losing memories, but, my recall ability is definitely deteriorating. Instead of instant recall, the answer pops into my head minutes later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermike007 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 (edited) There are a nearly endless number of things that can be done to combat aging and the effect it has on the brain. The worst thing you can do is nothing at all. Exercise is key. A healthy diet with high quality oils is important. Only rice bran, sunflower, olive and safflower oil for cooking. Other oils like soybean, palm, cotten seed and corn oil are deadly. Also, herbal supplements can be monumentally important for maintaining brain function. Wheat grass, alfalfa, zinc, and many others. The most potent source I have found is called green vibrance. It is a powerful blend of herbs, high nutrient food sources and amino acids. Great for memory, vitality, verility and aging. Attitude is another big one. As are humor and a light heart. Edited October 14, 2018 by spidermike007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is far too advanced for this nation. But, iherb may have it. Amazon does as well as many other supplement companies. It is amazing stuff.
