    Moderate alcohol consumption in older adults can prevent Alzheimer's disease No one likes alcoholics, but what would you think if you don't drink alcohol and there is a risk of Alzheimer's? The results of a study released in the United States on March 18 showed that moderate alcohol consumption can reduce the risk of dementia in people over 65 years old. Researchers at Beth Israel Dickon Medical Center in Boston found that older adults who drank between 1 and 6 small glasses of hard alcohol per week were on average 54 percent less likely to develop dementia than those who didn't drink at all.

    However, studies have also shown that if older people are too hungry for drinks, drinking an average of more than 14 drinks a week, the risk of dementia attacks is about 22% higher than that of non-drinkers. The latest issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association published the results of a controlled study of 373 elderly people with dementia and 373 healthy older adults. According to the study's first author, Mukamal, their findings can actually be visualized in a "U" curve.

    On one side of the curve are those who do not drink at all, on the other side are those who drink excessively, and those who are concave in the middle indicate those who drink in moderation. Mukamal said the ability of alcohol to prevent hardening of the arteries or blood vessels that supply blood to the brain may partly explain their latest findings. But he also stressed that the new results are not conclusive and should not be used as a basis for advising older people to drink.

    Long-term drinking may cause chronic alcoholism to cause Alzheimer's disease, but it is not accurate to see whether the old man is sick or not, the precursor of Alzheimer's disease is undoubtedly memory loss, and recent events are often forgotten.

    A physical examination is required. Focus on the digestive and respiratory systems. If you really become very thin suddenly and do not want to eat, you should pay special attention to ruling out the possibility of malignant diseases.
