My 65-years-old Mum’s memory has got worse day after day. Yesterday, we finally took her to see a neurologist. The doctor diagnosed her with Alzheimer’s disease, a condition where the patient slowly loses her memory, gradually losing minor than major bodily functions and eventually dies. Upon hearing the unfortunate news, we were devastated. The doctor said that the causes of this disease are still unknown but explained to us some of the risk factors which could have caused Mum to get Alzheimer’s disease. They were mainly:
- Age
With increasing age, people are more prone to the disease. The chance of getting the disease doubles every five years when one is 65 years and older. The likeness reaches near fifty percent when one is 85 years old.
- Family history
Research has shown that people with family members who have the disease are more prone to get it as well. The risk increases if more than one family member has Alzheimer’s.
- Genetics (hereditary)
There are 2 types of genes involved in determining whether a person develops a disease or not. Risk genes increase the likelihood of the person getting Alzheimer’s disease but do not guarantee that he/she will get it. Deterministic genes guarantee that anyone who inherits the genes will suffer from the disease.

I was diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease) when I was 46 years old 2 years ago. The Rilutek (riluzole) did very little to help. The medical team did even less. My decline was rapid and devastating. my arms weakened first, then my hands and legs. Last year, a family friend told me about DOCTOR JAMES Herbal mix medicine and its effectiveness in treating ALS , I contacted him. and ordered for his herbal mix medicine, i was happy to report the treatment effectively treated and reversed my Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), most of the symptoms stopped, i was able to walk and eat well, sleep well and exercise regularly., i'm pretty active now and my attitude is extremely positive.i joyfully recommend you to DR.JAMES because health is wealth this is a very bad experience with those living with ALS or any other diseases like Shingle,schizophrenia,Bipolar, Parkinson's disease,Schizophrenia,Cancer,Scoliosis,Bladder Cancer,Colorectal Cancer,Breast Cancer,Kidney Cancer,Leukemia,Lung Cancer,Skin Cancer,Uterine Cancer,Prostate Cancer,Fibromyalgia,a
