Be strong and know that you are not alone in your journey. Diet combined with exercise is key in slowing the progress of Alzheimers. Walking and getting your heart rate up for 20 to 30 minutes a day is extremely benefical . Lifting even light weights siting can get you heart rate up and improve circulation to the body/brain. Exercising your brain by reading, puzzles, games can also be benefical to slow this disease. A diet with lots of berries (wild blueberries), strawberries, green leafy vegetables, nuts, wholegrains, proteins and citrus fruits, can go a long way in helping the health of your brain. Extra Virgin Olive oils are key in attacking the formation of tangles in the brain. I take 2 tablespoons a day for this purpose. Maintaining a healthy weight, lowering cholesterol/sugar levels and keeping blood presser within normal range is all so important. Most of all enjoy your life and don't worry about the future!

@denisejones00 thank you for your suggestions. I have been reading about the diet and exercise programs mentioned everywhere about “curing” the brain.
They say that meat is bad for the brain…I used to eat a vegetarian diet and I think that it is something I have to resume.

Thanks again!
