Większość uszkodzeń wywołanych przez udar mózgu występuje w ciągu 24 godzin, dlatego bardzo istotne jest, aby pacjenci jak najszybciej otrzymali odpowiednie leczenie, przywracające dopływ krwi i ograniczające zły wpływ. Jeżeli udaro-podobne symptomy trwają ponad 10 minut, natychmiast wezwij pomoc, nawet jeśli nie masz pewności, że jest to udar.

Udar mózgu i choroby naczyniowo-mózgowe. Część 1Read more...
Choroby naczyniowo-mózgowe, wliczając w to udar mózgu, są trzecią z głównych przyczyn śmierci w Stanach Zjednoczonych i najczęstszym powodem kalectwa wśród starszych Amerykanów. Schorzenia te występują, kiedy naczynia krwionośne, dostarczające mózgowi utlenioną krew, są uszkodzone lub ich funkcje są osłabione. Poważnie ograniczony przepływ krwi, pozbawiający nawet na krótko mózg wystarczającej ilości tlenu, może doprowadzić do udaru.

Protecting Against Glycation and High Blood Sugar with Benfotiamine part 1Read more...
For decades, European doctors have prescribed diabetic patients a fat-soluble form of vitamin B1 called benfotiamine to treat neuropathies and help prevent complications such as blindness, kidney failure, heart attack, and limb amputation. Benfotiamine blocks destructive biochemical pathways that enable high blood sugar levels to damage nerves and small blood vessels.

Preserving and Restoring Brain Function part 1Read more...
Protecting brain health is vital if the pursuit of a longer life is to have any meaning. According to current wisdom, some degree of cognitive impairment is all but inevitable as we age. That is, unless steps are taken to prevent it. Scientists in Texas recently noted, “As life expectancy increases worldwide, pandemics of cognitive impairment and dementia are emerging as major public health problems.”

Depression. S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe) part 2Read more...
One of the hardest-working organs in the body, the liver detoxifies environmental contaminants and drugs, manufactures critical compounds needed for blood clotting, and manages cholesterol levels in the blood. Not surprisingly, these chemical reactions produce massive amounts of destructive reactive oxygen species in the liver, mainly in the cellular power plants known as mitochondria.

Pomegranate Favorably Modulates Gene ExpressionRead more...
When we consume fewer calories, one proven benefit is favorable changes in the expression of our genes. Favorable changes occur when “youth genes” that promote cellular vitality are “turned on,” while “senescence genes” that rob cellular functionality are “turned off.” Resveratrol has become popular because like calorie restriction, it favorably alters gene expression in ways that have been shown to protect against age-related disease. Several years ago, researchers discovered significant...
