    This is fascinating for myself....As I'm a retired (since 2003) Director of Nursing Long term Care ; who specialized in Geriatrics and more specifically providing a much improved state of the art quality Care facility & trained staff from all departments in specifically gearing care to help dementia patients. I researched and collaborated with the most remarkably intelligent & caring professionals who also sought to raise dementia care across the world to the Highest standards and efficacy for patients & family's satisfaction with meeting care progression needs & eventual outcome. We created new dementia care units within SKILLED NURSING FACILITIES & developed a working environment of the highest quality assurances for facility staff, residents & visitors. This video makes me want to come out of retirement and get back into actively persuing my nursing career. Thanks for this unexpectedly refreshing Hope renewed within my Spirit... I thought that part of me was dead. Seriously glad it's still alive and breathing! WOW this is a game changer! Fantastic summary Doctors.

    Very interesting info. Greater help requires with the font size bigger n darker print. Perhaps eyesight going off due to spending too long watching smarthp/ other factor. Some of medications mentioned are unfamiliar. Could we have flash out names to familiarize us if possible.

    Tá, taobh thiar de dhoirse na hoíche i bhfad i gcéin Seasann an pian le taobh an bhóthair ag fanacht leis na daoine cráite agus caillte sa saol trua seo O thrasnú deireanach, an bhfuil tú fós ag fanacht go dtiocfaidh na daoine as láthair i ndorchadas an tsean-bháis? Tá gach rud ag dul i dtreo na spéire mearbhall Ar fhéach tú riamh, tusa atá ag iarraidh grá idir príosúnaigh i do phríosúin, an fuath dubh atá agat lá amháin le súile báúla ar na rudaí atá ar an imeall? Casann roth na tuirse ar thóir aráin nó blúiríní ar mhaithe le dínit agus le maireachtáil Seas agus éist liom glao brónach na farraige, mar a sheolann sé caoin na ndaoine báite agus na báite ag gach breacadh an lae nuair a dhúisíonn an solas Ná fiafraigh díom cén chaoi a saolaítear focail dhílis, agus ní nochtfaidh mé rún deiridh an dáin go deo i gcluasa na bhfealltóirí,Ní féidir le peann a chuireann an slua litreacha isteach air labhairt le páipéar aisteach.

    Thank you. I'll go into prevention further later. Tea and Legos. Taming humility and reminiscence. We need to get out more. By we, I mean the inhabitants of towns and cities in America. I hear, of a hometown of a UFC fighter(Habib), tradition has it, you don't show the soul of your shoe; someone will smack your foot down. I hear(from UCTV) of some Nordic people; when a youth meets an elder, they humble themselves to the role of the child and sing a verse in a song that they grew up singing to the same elders. Humility and reminiscence. That's what need tamed. How?

    Okay. Decency, serotonin, Sleep, German and Mexican culture. I read a chart a long time (ten+ years), said Mexican Americans had the lowest incidents of non-inherent dementia. A different chart, says Globally, Germany had the highest. Mexican Americans, family, even the ones I've fought(gang members can be decent). Not too agreeable, not too disagreeable, not to callow, and in that decency, you'll produce more serotonin. The biggest production of serotonin, is the gut(good for your nervous system, helps us sleep). Now the brain can't use serotonin produced outside of the brain, but we have a second brain. A bigger gut brain and noninherent, may (also) be caused by a gut bacteria(as well, autism. May)

    Now, everyone knows Germans are too nice, since the Hitler thing. Japan has the highest incidence of autism, and culturally, Japan's marriages are more open, and business oriented. That's a clear, repeatable pattern.

    Sleep: @Pure Relaxing Vibes the play, midsummers night's dream, was a play designed/written to be watched on that sleep cycle. Before the availability of electricity, people slept like that: gas or oil or wax had to be tended, bandits + no phone.. In that tween(between that gap) imagination flourishes and a third state of consciousness(Jung) is more easily accessible. Mexico, from what I understand, have ciesta daily, nationally. Which, sleep clears whatever hormone that would otherwise drive us to noninherent dementia. Find my playlist, life you're doing it for more info.

    No brain games or exercising(Bdnf is produced on stamina training and a few other activities, in the brain. Bdnf will increase the size of your brain but won't prevent noninherent; that I know of) none of that will substitute decently interacting, and prevention of plaque forming on the frontal lobe and the social brain becoming atrophied.

    I'm not a psychologist or neurologist. I'm a clown and enfj. I do need to go further into the hormone that drives sleep and depervation's influence on risk factors. But I'm hungry.
