Download or read book Preventing Cognitive Decline and Dementia written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2017-10-05 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Societies around the world are concerned about dementia and the other forms of cognitive impairment that affect many older adults. We now know that brain changes typically begin years before people show symptoms, which suggests a window of opportunity to prevent or delay the onset of these conditions. Emerging evidence that the prevalence of dementia is declining in high-income countries offers hope that public health interventions will be effective in preventing or delaying cognitive impairments. Until recently, the research and clinical communities have focused primarily on understanding and treating these conditions after they have developed. Thus, the evidence base on how to prevent or delay these conditions has been limited at best, despite the many claims of success made in popular media and advertising. Today, however, a growing body of prevention research is emerging. Preventing Cognitive Decline and Dementia: A Way Forward assesses the current state of knowledge on interventions to prevent cognitive decline and dementia, and informs future research in this area. This report provides recommendations of appropriate content for inclusion in public health messages from the National Institute on Aging.

All I know is that it did – and that my own life took a different path as a result. I was on my way home after a busy day – standing in the corner store trying to remember what I was meant to buy for the kids. As I called home to ask, "What did you say I had to buy?" I heard the beep of someone calling me. "I'll call you right back, someone's calling me." It was a call from an unknown number. Even though I had had a busy day, I still answered the phone, "Hello, FM Personal Trainer, how can I help you?" "Hi, I need help... Please!" I could hear the sadness and despair in the voice. This was someone who really needed help! He says he has to lose weight and needs to see me immediately. It's late, and I try to schedule for another day, but he insists, and I can hear from his tone that he can’t stand much delay. So I agree and start driving to the indicated location. He tells me that he’ll wait in front of his house – and I won’t miss him because he’s so large. I call home again. "I'll be there later, a new client has appeared," and I hear the displeasure in my wife's voice... When I reach the destination, I can see he was right – he is large! He’s also young, probably less than 20. There are only two steps in front of the house and he's struggling to climb them, holding the door frame tightly to pull himself in. Let’s call him Joe. Joe starts to tell me his story. He lists the multitude of diets he has tried and the failed attempts to exercise. I understand him. I was like this once... Finally, he tells me resignedly: "It's genetic, there's nothing I can do, I think I have to live with it." Before I can contradict him, his mother comes into the room, carrying a stack of beautifully washed and ironed shirts which she puts carefully into a bag, saying, “I have prepared your work clothes for tomorrow.” Then with a gentle smile, she says to me," He inherited it from me. I have morbid obesity." She gives me the list of problems that she has. She can't even stand for long and spends most of her time sitting in a wheelchair. I am curious about the shirts and ask what work Joe is doing. "I pack vegetables, but because I sweat a lot, I have to change every 2 hours otherwise I get cold. I really can't afford to get sick and stay at home. I have two younger brothers who go to school, and there's my mom who is sick. So I have to work. I use five T-shirts a day, but it's okay, I'm used to it.” I completely forget about the busy day and my fatigue. I start pouring out information that will help him lose weight. I want to – I have to – help him. I begin to explain, one after the other, all the mistakes he has made, how he lost muscle mass through starvation, why he does not lose weight even if he eats very little, the role of hormones, why diets are not effective, the health benefits of losing weight ….. but then I realize this is way too much information all at once. "All right, here's what we’ll do. Tell me what you like to eat, and I'll create a nutritional plan for you. From tomorrow you will start to eat as we planned, and gradually I will explain to you everything you need to know so that for the rest of your life you’ll understand the principles of a fit and healthy body." I see the hope in his eyes and a determination to succeed even if he doesn't yet understand much about what he should do. He's confident again, and I can feel his excitement! Suddenly the sadness returns. "The problem is that from next week we move to another city. The company I work for has seasonal vegetable warehouses, and the vegetable season here will end this week. I really want to do this, but it looks like I'm going to fail again before I start. How many weeks of counselling should I have with you, and how much does it cost? I know a personal trainer is quite expensive and I don't know if..." I try to stop him. This is not about money. He insists and takes cash from his pocket to pay me, but I really can't take the money... I literally can't! I feel like I need some fresh air. I say goodbye in a hurry. I get in the car and I actually feel overwhelmed by sadness, compassion, but also admiration for his determination to take on responsibilities for his family and to keep looking for a solution for his own health problems. He's got to make it; he's got to do it! I promise myself I'll do everything I can to help him and find a way to advise him even if he's far away. I get home and the kids are all over me, wanting to know why I am late. I can't talk about it... So that’s how it started. That night I worked to sort out his nutritional plan and to find a solution for the future. From the next day, he started eating according to my nutritional plan. And I started writing every night - chapter after chapter covering absolutely everything that he needed to know to get results. He left the city, and at the end of every week I sent him a new chapter. I was working during the day doing workouts and providing nutritional advice as usual, but I couldn't wait to get home so I could write some more. After the first month, he had lost a good few pounds and his self-confidence had grown enormously. He started posting pictures of himself 😊 (His previous profile picture was of a wild horse). After almost three months he had dropped multiple clothing sizes and was increasing the intensity of his exercises. He sent me a message: "Guess what? I have a girlfriend." I knew how much it meant to him, and I was so happy. He’d lost some weight, his clothes fitted him – but this is what was really important: his self-esteem and self-confidence were growing, and he was making a huge difference to his overall health. Meanwhile, his willpower and determination to stick to the nutritional plan and the training programme despite being so far from me, his personal trainer, inspired me to write my first book on nutrition and training. I collected all the chapters I had written and linked and improved them, even adding demonstration videos with workouts that could easily be done at home. I wouldn't have thought of writing a book before, but sometimes when you believe you are inspiring and helping someone else, you actually get inspired and help yourself. I sent Joe the first copy of my book and can only thank him for allowing me to meet him and help him. Today I want to share with you everything I wrote over this time. I know that if you are like Joe, you can learn everything you need from my book and you can apply it, wherever you are. I’d be so happy to add you to my list of distance clients who have had impressive results. Florin Mihai - Personal Trainer

Download or read book The Biology of Cholesterol and Related Steroids written by N. B. Myant and published by Butterworth-Heinemann. This book was released on 2014-04-24 with total page 925 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Biology of Cholesterol and Related Steroids focuses on the study of sterols in relation to living organisms. The publication first takes a look at the analysis of sterols and related steroids and the distribution of sterols and related steroids in nature, as well as the processes of extraction and separation and presence of sterols in plants, fungi, vertebrates, and invertebrates. The text then ponders on biosynthesis of sterols and metabolism of cholesterol. Topics include formation of fatty acid esters of cholesterol, steroid hormones, biosynthetic pathway to sterols, reaction mechanisms, and comparative aspects of sterol synthesis. The manuscript examines the developmental aspects of cholesterol metabolism and sterols in biological membranes. The book also reviews cholesterol synthesis in animal tissues, sterol metabolism in isolated cells, and epidemiology of the plasma cholesterol. Discussions focus on selection of statistical populations, genetic influences, regulation of sterol synthesis, general aspects of sterol metabolism, and removal of cell cholesterol in vivo. The publication is a dependable source of data for biochemists and readers interested in the biology of cholesterol and steroids.
