Dementia and memory

There is treatment for memory loss and dementia. Precise cognitive assessment is critical.
Treatment includes cardiovascular optimization, life style interventions, cognitive training and medications for appropriate people.

The earlier the identification of memory problems, the greater the opportunity to maintain the person's function and to delay or even to prevent deterioration.

Prevention and treatment for memory problems continues to improve. In 2008, the link between Cognition and Cardiovascular health has become the basis of improved therapy. High blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol abnormalities, obesity and inadequate exercise, have all been linked to cognitive and memory problems. Thus, we offer a double benefit. Focussing on the evaluation and optimal treatment of these risk factors can delay the onset and the progression of memory/cognitive disorders. Further, this same approach can delay and prevent the onset and progression of heart and stroke events.

Cognitive Training is increasingly in the news. Early research is very exciting. For some of the latest and ongoing news in the area, I would recommend www.sharpbrains.com. For a practical trial of cognitive training, I recommend www.lumosity.com.
