The University of Kentucky's Dr. William Markesbery thinks a day is coming when we will be able to protect children from the illnesses of old age, including Alzheimer's disease. Although it's purely speculative at this time, it could be possible in a few decades to identify young people who are genetically susceptible to develop Alzheimer's disease. Protective drugs, lifestyle changes, or other strategies could be started decades before symptoms of the disease appears.
Scientists don't know exactly what causes Alzheimer's disease but they think many factors can affect each person differently. Alzheimer's disease is not considered a normal part of aging, but age is a primary risk factor.
This disease usually doesn't appear until after age 60, and about five percent of people ages 65 to 74 have the disease, and the percentage jumps to nearly half after age 85. Generally if members of your family have had Alzheimer's disease you are more likely to be at risk. Doctors think a number of genetic mutations and variations can increase risk, but these markers have yet to be identified. They can not know for sure if someone has Alzheimer's disease until they examine the brain tissue after death. It is the only way of currently diagnosing this disease.
Drugs can sometimes slow down the symptoms in the early and middle stages of the disease, but there is no cure.
After reading this article one important question comes to my mind. If they have no cure for the disease that already exists in people, how do they think they can prevent one from occurring in the first place? The mere idea of protective drugs to prevent young people from a disease they may never develop, such as Alzheimer's or any other brain disorder is a frightening thought!
Could it be that modern man is creating a complex solution for a relatively simple nutrient deficiency problem? This simple solution should be examined first because there is a high probability that a nutrient and or dehydration problem could produce a much more cost effective answer.
Remember this well known fact, medical schools that train our doctors and scientists are heavily funded by the drug industry. Their primary agenda is developing complex chemical substances that untrained people like you and I do not fully understand. This keeps more money flowing into a failing health care industry. In comparison, there is not a lot of money to be made in a simple corrective nutrient approach.
How much can you charge for fish oil and water?
Consider this, the human brain is 85 percent water and 15 percent fat in its make up. There are two essential nutrients the brain must be given to perform adequately. These two essential nutrients are omega-3 essential fatty acid (fish oil) and pure water. These two nutrients are non-negotiable as far as your brain is concerned.
You can learn so much from reading these two books on how to strengthen your brain to avoid most any brain disease (disorder). "The Omega-3 Connection" by Dr.
Andrew Stroll M.D. and "Your Body's Many Cries For Water" by F. Batmanghelidj M.D.
You be the judge and decide which option would be best for you or your family. One approach is unrealistically costly, the other is definitely affordable. Call upon your innate common sense and open your mind to what these two medical professionals
have to share with us all.
Courage is Needed Now
Courage is needed now because of earth, climatic and energy changes which are affecting our lives.Myself and many Reiki Masters and therapists work when we are asleep, travelling and doing healing and rescue work. This is because there are global changes occuring, such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, unprecedented weather, floods, forest fires, landslides, wars and civil unrest to name but a few. These occurences have prompted our recruitment by those in spirit to work at night. The recruitment took place at a Reiki Share one evening by a Tibetan Lama who told me, Hilary a clairvoyant and another friend Jane that we were to do this work and to meditate once a week, so we could be prepared.A year and a half later and many global events on, we are still working at night and even afternoon naps, feeling exhausted during the day. Thank the universe for flower essences that have keep us sane and ever expanding.
We are given energy when we are in need by the White Brotherhood who...

A Guide to Waterbed Mattresses
If you need a new waterbed mattress, there are a variety of things you should know. For starters, waterbed mattresses come in different levels of firmness. Since even the firmest waterbed is less firm than a traditional bed, most experts recommend buying the firmest waterbed mattress that you can afford.
Let's take a look at the different types of waterbed mattresses:
Free Flow: as its name suggests, a free flow mattress allows the water to flow freely. This makes the bed feel as though it is always gently rocking. Sleeping on a free flow waterbed mattress is much like sleeping on a boat.
This type of mattress is not recommended for someone who desires support. Some people have trouble sleeping on a bed that moves freely with every toss and every turn. In addition, the free flow mattress doesn't have any mechanism to balance it. This means that if one partner is larger or heavier than the other, the mattress will be lopsided.
