UGqr. J Wesson Ashford ukunye nathi, uSihlalo we I-Alzheimer's Foundation yaseMelika IBhodi yeeNgcebiso zokuHlola iMemori.

Masifumane umbuzo koogqirha kunye neengcali zethu apha kwaye masiqale ngoScott eWestpark, uScott wamkelekile kumboniso.

Scott :

Enkosi Mike ndinombuzo, ngaba i-Alzheimer ixhaphake kakhulu e-United States kunokuba injalo kwihlabathi kwaye ukuba kunjalo kutheni?

UMike McIntyre :

Enkosi ngale mibuzo: UGqr. Leverenz, US ngokuchasene namanye amazwe…

UGqr. Leverenz :

Kanye kangangoko sinokuthi esi sisifo esinamathuba alinganayo, ukuba singathetha, kwaye sibonakala sichaphazela bonke abantu njengoko sijonga kwiintlanga ezahlukeneyo kunye namaqela eentlanga. Ndicinga ukuba kukho inani lezigulana nangaphakathi e-United States, ndicinga ukuba idatha yabantu base-Afrika baseMelika inomda kodwa kangangoko sinokuthi iyafana ngokulinganayo kubantu abaninzi ngokuphindaphindiweyo.

UMike McIntyre :

Inxalenye yesibini yombuzo wakhe yenye abantu abaninzi abawubuzayo, ngaba uyakwazi ukusebenzisa ingqondo yakho okanye uthathe ivithamin okanye wenze into yokuphelisa i-Alzheimer's?

UGqr. Leverenz :

Ndicinga ukuba lo ngumbuzo omkhulu kwaye ndicinga ukuba idatha yomelele ngoku ukuba umsebenzi wokwenyani unokuba luncedo kwaye ngelixa ungathinteli ngokupheleleyo ukuba uya kufumana isifo ngokuqinisekileyo uyanceda ekusithinteleni. Kukho ubungqina bokuba umsebenzi wengqondo unokuba luncedo ngokunjalo ke ndikhuthaza abantu ngokubanzi ukuba basebenze ngokwasemzimbeni nasengqondweni ngakumbi njengoko besiya bekhula.

UMike McIntyre :

Kuthekani ngomntu ongenayo waza wafunyanwa? Njengoko ndiqonda ukuba ayinakunyangeka kwaye uncwadi olukhutshiweyo luthi alunakucothiswa nyani kodwa ngaba likho ithemba lokuba umsebenzi emva kokuxilongwa kunokuba luncedo?

UGqr. Leverenz :

Ndicinga ukuba kukho, ndikhuthaza zonke izigulane zam ukuba zisebenze ngokomzimba nangokwengqondo kwaye kukho inani leendlela ezinokuba luncedo, mhlawumbi kukho iziphumo ezithe ngqo kwingqondo, siyazi ukuba umzekelo umsebenzi womzimba wongeza izinto ezithile zokukhula kwengqondo. zisempilweni ingqondo. Kodwa siyazi ukuba xa abantu benesifo esifana nesifo sika-Alzheimer kwaye bafumana enye ingxaki, yithi enye eyayanyaniswa nokungabikho komsebenzi okufana nesifo senhliziyo okanye isifo sohlangothi ukuba abaqhubeki kakuhle nabo, ngoko ukuhlala usempilweni jikelele gcina i-Alzheimer's yakho, kangangoko sinakho, kude.

UMike McIntyre :

UGqr Wes Ashford ndiwazi njani umahluko phakathi kokuba ngumntu olibalayo kunye nomntu ofanele ukuba nexhala ngolu hlobo lwento okanye ukuba ngumntu osele ekhulile okanye unyana wam oneminyaka eli-17 ubudala obonakala engenakukwazi ukufumana izitshixo zakhe. . Ungafikelela kwinqanaba lokuba uzikhathaze ngesi sifo esifana nokuthi "owu Nkosi yam," ngaba oku kukubonakalisa umntu osemncinci kakhulu okanye mna ndilibala izinto ngalo lonke ixesha ngaba luphawu lokuba ngenye imini ndizakukhula.

UGqr. Ashford :

Ndicinga ukuba uloyiko yinto esiza kuyilungisa ngokuthe ngqo. Enye yezinto ezathethwa ngaphambili kukuba kukho abantu abazizigidi ezi-5 abanazo ngqondweni kweli lizwe kubalelwa isifo Alzheimer kwaye kukho isigaba phambi koku, kwaye ezinye izifundo zethu ziye zabonisa, iminyaka 10 phambi kokuba uxilongo lokwenene unokuba iingxaki memory. Ke akukho nje abantu abazizigidi ezi-5 abane-Alzheimer kunye nesifo sengqondo esixhalabisayo kukho enye i-5 yezigidi zabantu abaphuhlisa isifo sika-Alzheimer abanenkxalabo yememori othetha ngayo kwaye ke sikholelwa kwi-Alzheimer's Foundation of America ukuba kubaluleke kakhulu ukuqaphela. ukuba kukho le ngxaki ukuze ube nokuqala.

Sicinga ukuba sithathe inyathelo lokuqala kule nto, ukufikelela Usuku lweSizwe lokuHlola iMemori, esiqhuba nge-Alzheimer's Foundation of America sinovavanyo oluhle kakhulu lwememori kwi-intanethi ebizwa ngokuba yiMemTrax MemTrax.com. Ungaqalisa ukubeka iliso kwinkumbulo yakho kwaye ubone ukuba ngenene unengxaki yememori kwangethuba kwaye uqale ngokwenene ukwenza uhlobo lwezinto athethe ngazo uGqr. Leverenz ukuze wenze okusemandleni akho ucothise oku kodwa kwangethuba uqala ukucothisa oku kokukhona kungcono.

UMike McIntyre :

Ndibona rhoqo kwi-intanethi ukuba kukho iimvavanyo ezincinci ezifana ne-minicog okanye iMontreal Uvavanyo lwengqondo kukho zonke iintlobo zeendlela zokujonga imemori yakho. Ndiyazibuza ukuba ngaba oku kububulumko ukwenza oko kwaye uzijonge nje okanye usebenzise nje loo nto xa unemiba yenkumbulo echaphazela ubomi bakho?

Izinto ezifana novavanyo lwaseMontreal, uvavanyo lwaseSt. Louise, kunye nefashoni endala ebizwa ngokuba yi Uviwo lweSimo seNgqondo esiNcinane zenziwa ngcono ngokwenene kwiofisi yoogqirha okanye ngumntu oqeqeshiweyo nonokuthetha nawe ngayo. Umbono wokuba nezikrini ezimfutshane unomdla kakhulu kodwa, ngaba ungayenza le nto ekhaya? Kuke kwaphikiswana kakhulu kodwa ndiyakholelwa kwindlela esihamba ngayo nokhathalelo lwezonyango abantu kuza kufuneka bathathe amanyathelo ngakumbi nangakumbi ekunyamekeleni imiba yabo kwaye bazenzele uhlolo, yiyo loo nto sineMemTrax, ukuzama nceda abantu balandele inkumbulo yabo kwaye ayingombuzo nje wokuba, ngaba inkumbulo yakho imbi namhlanje, okanye ilungile namhlanje, umbuzo ngowokuba yintoni umkhondo kwixesha leenyanga ezi-6 okanye unyaka, ngaba uya usiba mbi? Yiloo nto esifanele siyichonge njengento ebalulekileyo, ukuba unengxaki kunokuba kufuneka uye kubona ugqirha wakho kuba kukho ngokwenene iindidi ezininzi zeemeko ezinyangekayo ezinokubangela iingxaki zememori: ukusilela kwe-B12, ukunqongophala kwe-thyroid, i-stroke, kunye nezinye izinto ezininzi ezifuna ukulungiswa.
