How to treat alzheimer's disease

Alzheimer's or Presenile Dementia is characterised by confusion, loss of memory, speech problems, hallucinosis, and the ability to perform and follow through with purposeful movements.

Its most likely cause is thought to be free radical damage. Free radicals have been implicated in more than 60 diseases. The eating of red meat has also been implicated in the cause of Alzheimer's so dietary changes in this respect may be advisable.

It is also recommended that you drink a daily glass of red grape juice or red wine as there are chemicals found in red grapes which help to repair and regenerate brain cells. This would also be a good preventative measure against Alzheimer's.
