ALZHEIMER'S BLOG:

Have you checked out Alzheimer's Association lately? They have a new study which shows Cigarette smoking a risk factor for Alzheimer's Disease. A USCF analysis of published studies on the relationship between Alzheimer's Disease and smoking indicates that smoking cigarettes is a significant risk factor for the disease.


Also: Study will put to test growing evidence linking high blood pressure to dementia. In a flurry of new research, scientists scanned peoples brains to show hypertension fuels a kind of scanning linked to later development of Alzheimer's disease and other dementia's. Those scars can start building up in middle age, decades before memory problems will appear.

Go on to www.alz.org Read it and learn more about Alzheimer's.
