OPINION:   Dr Ken Romeo  775-870-6942

Day #1:

DHEA appears to protect every part of the body against the ravages of aging. Low levels of DHEA have been associated with:

• Chronic Inflammation
• Immune Dysfunction
• Depression
• Rheumatoid Arthritis
• Type-II Diabetic complications
• Greater RISK of certain cancers
• Excess body fat
• Cognitive decline
• Heart disease in Men
• Osteoporosis                                                                      (Bellino et. al)

Yours in Health! Merry Christmas!

Dr Ken Romeo - Anti Aging Reno Nevada - Look to Your Senses for Great Brain Health

Conclusory Opinion: Dr. Ken Romeo   775-870-6942

The sensory measurement of 1,884 seniors (average age 66.7) was tested to see if there was a link between low sensory readings and cognitive impairment.

The scientists measured hearing, visual and smell senses of the volunteers using a variety of standardized methods.

canstock.com

The results showed that hearing, visual and smell senses were independently associated with cognitive impairment risk.

In other words, only single sensory development impacted cognitive development since, "(the study) also showed that 85% of participants with hearing impairment, 81% with visual impairment, and 76% with smell impairment did not develop cognitive impairment during follow-up." This is excellent news!!

It was the conclusion that sensory impairment were not associated to any one sensory system which may indicate that a more global neural health marker is working.

If nothing else, sensory cognitive impairment may be useful in uncovering mechanisms of healthy brain aging but are not independent factors showing potential cognitive decline.

Dr Ken Romeo - Anti Aging - Type II Diabetes: Is HbA1c Level Related to Cognitive Impairment? - Reno Nevada

OPINION:  Dr Ken Romeo   775-870-6942

The purpose of a recent study was to clarify the association between the fluctuation of blood glucose levels and cognitive impairment in elderly subjects with type 2 diabetes.

"88 relatively elderly subjects (≥65 years old) with type 2 diabetes were evaluated for fluctuation of blood glucose levels with glycoalbumin (GA)/hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ratio, and estimated cognitive impairment with Hasegawa dementia scale-revised score and mini mental state examination score.

Multivariate analyses showed that GA/HbA1c ratio and urinary albumin excretion, but not hypoglycemia, were independent determinant factors for cognitive impairment in elderly with type 2 diabetes.

The fluctuation of blood glucose levels per se is closely associated with cognitive impairment in elderly subjects with type 2 diabetes even when hypoglycemia is not accompanied.

Since it is very easy to calculate GA/HbA1c ratio, a physician should check this ratio so that they can reduce the fluctuation of blood glucose levels especially in elderly subjects with type 2 diabetes.

Yours in Health!

Dr Ken Romeo - Anti Aging Reno Nevada - 14 Year Study Reveals which Lifestyles effect Memory Function the Most

Conclusion Opinion: Dr Ken Romeo   775-870-6942

Posted ahead of article publication in Neuropsychological Development and Cognition.

Understanding the relationship between memory function and lifestyle offers great opportunities for promoting beneficial lifestyle choices to foster healthy cognitive aging and for the development of intervention programs for older adults.

Scientists recently studied a cohort of older adults (age 65 and older) enrolled in the Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam, an ongoing prospective population-based research project.

A total of 1,966 men and women participated in an episodic memory test every 3 years over a period of 14 years. Lifestyle habits were repeatedly assessed using self-report measures.

Physical activity, light-to-moderate alcohol consumption, difficulties staying asleep, and social engagement were associated with better memory function over the course of 14 years.

In contrast, smoking and long sleep duration were associated with worse memory function.

These findings suggest that certain lifestyle factors can have long-term protective or harmful effects on memory function in aging individuals.

Yours in Health!
