Description

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, and a common cause of dementia. The most noticeable symptom is short term memory loss, witnessed as an inability to acquire new information and remember new events. As the disease progresses, symptoms such as language difficulties, mood swings, behavioral issues, disorientation, inability to manage self care, etc. start to occur. With time, the person's condition declines and body functions are lost. The typical life expectancy following the diagnosis of Alzheimer's is between 3-9 years. Physical and mental exercise, and managing a healthy body weight can decrease the risk of AD. Medications and supplements are generally ineffective in decreasing the risk of AD, nor can they stop or reverse disease progression. However, exercise programs can improve outcomes, while antipsychotics can treat behavioral problems or psychosis. This book contains some path-breaking studies on Alzheimer's disease. It provides comprehensive insights into its management. This book is a resource guide for all students as well as experts.
