- Go to Are You Putting These Dementia Causing Chemicals in Your Body?
since my daughter takes care of dementia and alzheimers people we were talking about this subject the other day. She was telling me about a woman who is only 6 months older than me and she is a basket case and cant do a thing for herself. I wonder about these chemicals, they could be a contributing factor but when the people who are my age and older were growing up we didnt have a lot of these products, so you would think it would of started back as a young adult. I feel it is the way people take care of themselves and use drugs and alcohol and smoke that can cuse these issues. My mom had dementia as she was dying but they blamed her issue on a bladder infection. I eat dark chocolate every day, so I guess I am ok.
Anymore there doesnt seem to be a thing you cant put in your body, its in your genes

Difficult to read for me, my BIL Mike is just 78 and deep into it now and in a institution. We used to fish together, sit in a boat all day, never thinking that this would happen.

i do agree love, moderation is the key for it is impossible to
avoid all foods in case soething is detrimental to us. We do eat as much fresh as we can and very little meat.

Re:
Kevin Parent's book about food & drugs that are being used by suplliers is scary to read - and he talks about this too. Organic is the way to go, but it is terribly expensive. Good information to share, Justi. Thank you!

Yes I agree with a lot of this Justi a good healthy diet is probably the key to control a lot of illness.
Of course we are all living to a greater age and many of our forebears probably died before this awful disease became apparent. When one thinks of DDT and how it was spread every where before it was even suspected of being toxic. Try and have as many nice vegetables as you can and as you say fish, but I am sure you know good from dubious.

I remember SoulBuilder often talking about how dangerous lots of meats were.
