Health is a cherished facet of human life! While Mother Nature has laid out a vibrant

ambience for us to live, very often we feel constrained in our capacities to cope up

with our life demands and difficulties. Such inconsistencies which could be physical or

mental, escort us to disease conditions and ailments. Most of us are today living with

some or other kind of health deviations and recall our healthy and sporty past

histories, especially of the youth times!

Of the major illnesses that have emerged as potent health threats are obesity,

stress, dementia, coronary heart disease and diabetes among others. While all the

talk about diseases cannot be altogether alienated from the human life and

existence, the focus therefore has to be on cures and treatments! We humans have

made striking medical discoveries in the past decades in our endeavor to control and

conquer the illnesses that afflict human life. While significant and life changing

successes are being achieved in some conditions like CAD and diabetes, there are

others like dementia and Alzheimer disease where the lacuna still looms large!

Alzheimer Disease – Much More than Geriatric Symptoms!

There has been a lot of research for the dementias, particularly Alzheimer Disease

in the top medical labs of the world. The neurodegenerative character of this disease

is still out of reach of the research capabilities and our best scientists and medical

professionals are busy to decipher the underlying intrinsic linkages. This disease

condition which is manifested mostly in persons of age over 65 was first described by

the German neuro - researcher in 1906. AD has been regarded as an old age

condition whose primary characteristic is ‘short term memory loss’ which is often

accepted as an old age symptom. However, the other symptoms that accompany are

the difficulty in remember and recall, the ability to think and reason in finer manner

and the general debility to respond with mental swiftness.

The progression of this disease is different for different individuals but the above set

of symptoms are generally present. The treatment options have been limited to

taking care of the affected old person and controlling the physical deviations that

accompany this disease! There are many institutes which are engaging in deeper

insights to decipher the causes and effect relationships for AD.

Roskamp Institute – Leading the AD Research

Roskamp Institute, Sarasota, US has conducted some pioneering researches at its

world class med labs and has succeeded in understanding some vital parameters of

AD! Michael Mullan, a distinguished scientist heads the institute and leads the

researcher’s fraternity engaged in the understanding dementias and AD in particular!

His researches have established some very significant linkages between

AD/Dementia and the life parameters which we often take for granted. His research

papers regarding ‘supplementation’ and its positive effects on alleviating dementia

and the catalyzing of AD on account of ‘sleep deprivation’ are well accepted and

admired ones!

Besides, Michael Mullan leads at the Roskamp Institute of Sarasota, US, the

‘Vision Research Program’ in neurodegenerative diseases collecting much vital and

useful data to work upon during in-depth researches of utility! While the cure for AD

still has to be established, there is an urgent need to devote calibers and energies to

the neurodegenerative diseases research!
