    In many respects, Alzheimer’s is a brain form of diabetes. Even in the earliest stages of the disease, the brain’s ability to metabolize sugar is reduced. Normally, insulin plays a big role in helping the brain take up sugar from the blood. But, in Alzheimer’s, insulin is not very effective in the brain. Consequently, the brain cells practically starve to death.This audiobook explains about diabetes mellitus and aims at giving an insight at various aspects of this chronic disease and the risk factors that lead to it, the various ways it develops in the human body, the old and new approaches to treatment - both from a pharmacological and a non-pharmacological point of view - ways to prevent and to manage the diabetes complications, how to improve the live of the diabetic patients who are faced with not only physical but also psychological problems, and statistical data from around the world which focuses on epidemiology and outlines the issue of the cost of diabetes.Finally, this book links diabetes mellitus with Alzheimer’s disease as a different expression of diabetes, since it is closely associated with several key neuronal factors implicated in dementia. ungekürzt.

    It’s morning at Meadow Brook Nursing Home. During the last 10 months, this has been my mother’s abode. Most days, I feel it is mine, too. Life, as I have known it, is a blur. Alzheimer’s has taken mother from herself, her family, and her friends. It has demanded a grit and grace in our everyday lives beyond human comprehension.“I am tormented! Help me! Take this torment away! Help me! Help me! Help me”, she screams.Daily I have fought to do that, to bring peace to her life. With every utterance, my heart is torn apart, and I cry out to God to not forsake us in our fight. This disease has taken us from the heights of Heaven to the pits of Hell. Today is different. After my second 36-hour shift at Meadow Brook this week, sleep comes in moments for me or not at all, causing me to be exhausted within and without.Hallway lights outside Room 104 announce the arrival of the first shift. The quiet peace of the night will soon be replaced with the bustle and activity of a new day, a scene to which I have become accustomed over the past few weeks is now the routine of my daily life. I am sitting at Mother’s bedside, holding her hand.After her visit from the “Old Folks’ Friend” three weeks ago, the deathwatch began. Meadow Brook has become the “Valley of the Shadow”. For a few moments here and there, mother awakens. Her mind is clear. God has given me the greatest gift of all: He has given me my mother back. We hold tight to each other. We sing. We recite poems from her childhood. We talk about her life and her death.She slips in and out of consciousness. My mind races through the pages of our lives and reviews all the experiences that have brought us growth, both through gain and through loss. Her frail body is fighting to stay, but she will not win this fight. It is her final chapter; her time to go.Looking in her face, I see a glowing, radiant, child-like spirit filled with love. As I hold her hand, I think of all the hands she h ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Karen Kline Chrifferson. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/233064/bk_acx0_233064_sample.mp3.

    Approximately 50 million people suffer from Alzheimer’s worldwide. In the US alone, 5.5 million people have Alzheimer’s - about 10 percent of the worldwide Alzheimer’s population. Alzheimer's disease is a progressive brain disorder that damages and eventually destroys brain cells, leading to memory loss, changes in thinking and other brain functions. While the rate of progressive decline in brain function is slow at the onset, it gets worse with time and age. Brain function decline accelerates and brain cells eventually die over time. While there has been significant research done to find a cure, currently there is no cure available. Alzheimer’s incidence rate in the US and other western countries is significantly higher than that of the countries in in the developing world. Factors such as lifestyle, diet, physical and mental activity and social engagement play a part in development and progression of Alzheimer’s. In most cases, if you are above the age of 50, plaques and tangles associated with Alzheimer's may have already started forming in your brain. At the age of 65, you have 10% chance of Alzheimer's and at age 80, the chances are about 50%. With lifestyle changes, proper diet and exercise (of the mind and body), Alzheimer's is preventable.In recent times, Alzheimer's is beginning to reach epidemic proportions. The cost of Alzheimer’s to US economy is expected to cross a trillion dollars in 10 years. It is a serious health care issue in many of the western countries as the population age and the life expectancy increase. At this time, our understanding of what causes Alzheimer’s and the ways to treat it is at its infancy. However, we know the factors that affects Alzheimer’s and we can use that knowledge to prevent, delay onset or at least slow down the rate of progression of the disease. While this book does not present all the answers, it is an attempt to examines the factors affecting Alzheimer's and how ungekürzt.
