Uncontrolled Diabetes May Hasten Mental Decline...

Dear Reader,

Startling news - complications from diabetes can affect not just your body, but your mind as well. Older people who have diabetes that is poorly controlled are at a higher risk of big declines in both memory and thinking according to the findings of a new study appearing in the journal Archives of Neurology.

Today, nearly a third of Americans who are over 65, roughly 11 million adults, have diabetes - the number is expected to increase to almost 15 million older adults by 2034.

Until now very little was known about the effect of newly diagnosed diabetes might have on mental function.

The team, led by Dr. Kristine Yaffe who is a professor of psychiatry and neurology from the University of California, San Francisco, followed over 3,000 black and white adults without dementia, of an average age of 74, who were taking part in the Healthy, Aging and Body Composition project, a long term study of older people who lived in Pittsburgh and Tennessee that lasted a full ten years. During that time participants were given cognitive tests repeatedly that looked at memorization skills, dexterity, coordination and overall mental state.

At the start, 23% of the subjects already had diabetes, and of the 2,300 without the disease, 159 were diagnosed with it during the follow up. Those who had diabetes at the start of the research also scored slightly lower of the initial tests of thinking skills than those who didn't have the disease.

During the decade of follow up, those with diabetes showed a much bigger decline in mental function than those who didn't have the disease. The gap had widened significantly between the two groups.

The findings support the idea that older people who have diabetes also have impacted thinking and memory, and perhaps poor blood sugar control might contribute to this. It may be that the inflammation and vascular damage that comes from chronically high blood sugar levels over many years is the problem. Of course more research is needed to see if early detection and treatment of the disease cuts the risk of mental decline.

Uncontrolled Diabetes May Hasten Mental Decline... Continued...

So what do you do if you have diabetes and are concerned about your mental state?

Do all you can to keep your disease under control. Better glucose control means you'll be better off in terms of preventing complications to both body and mind. Eat a healthy, balanced diet and get the exercise your body needs - while also testing when you should and following your doctor's recommendations. For older people managing diabetes isn't as easy, older patients are more sensitive to low blood sugar and are likely taking medications for other health conditions.

You also need to keep in mind that while the study saw an association between mental decline and diabetes, it does not claim a cause and effect relationship. The researchers also didn't make any distinctions between type 1 and type 2 diabetes, though given the age of the subjects in the work most likely had type 2 disease. There are probably many complex factors, many yet to be fully understood, involved in the loss of cognitive skills and diseases like diabetes.



To your good health,

P.S: Nike...Ebay...Amazon and Walmart pay for your opinion

Fortune 500 companies make their money by people like you and I buying their products.

But how do they know what we want to buy? Easy they pay to find out the products we like, where we shop and what we buy.

In a nutshell big businesses need people to tell them what products to make.

People like Michelle McAllister - a 34 year old full-time mother of two. Michelle and many others help "big business" make millions, although they haven't got any marketing or sales experience.

In fact Michelle knows absolutely nothing about business, but she does know what she likes...

And that's exactly the information these companies are after and will pay you for.
