The elderly are particularly prone to memory decline and even Alzheimer's disease. As family members, we must pay special attention to their health. So, how can older adults combat memory decline? This is an issue that many juniors are very concerned about.

My grandma suffered from Alzheimer's disease before. Sometimes she reacted slowly and sometimes she was suspicious and sensitive. At that time, my family were particularly worried about her. They took her to see many doctors and prescribed a lot of medicine.

In summary, there are several ways to help the elderly resist memory decline. I hope it will be helpful to everyone:

1. Make more friends and develop some hobbies

Sometimes, children and grandchildren are working hard outside and may not necessarily spend a lot of time with the elderly. It is recommended that the elderly make more friends and have their own circle of friends so that they will not feel lonely because their children are not around.

Cultivate some fixed interests and hobbies, some small fun that you like, and immerse yourself in them every day, your brain will be active, and your mood will be happy. Educational chess and card activities such as playing mahjong, playing landlords, chess and Go can allow the elderly to have more fun with their friends.

2. Do more acupoint massage to strengthen the brain

1. Massage the head to stimulate the acupoints on the head (it is recommended to massage Baihui point for five minutes every morning and evening)

2 You can use more moxibustion, some to promote blood circulation, and more to stimulate acupuncture points that strengthen the brain.

3 Soak your feet and massage the acupoints on the soles of your feet

The feet are called the second largest heart of the human body and have many acupuncture points. Regular foot soaking and massaging the acupoints on the soles of your feet can activate your brain and nerves. system and circulatory system.

3. Maintain an optimistic attitude and keep exercising

It is important to exercise more and feel comfortable. My grandma is relatively withdrawn, has few friends, doesn't like sports, and has a pessimistic view of many things. We need to provide more guidance to the younger generation when they have time. Next time you go for a fitness run, you can bring the elderly with you. There are many benefits to creating a sports trend for the whole family.

4. A balanced diet

Protein, calcium, and vitamins must be supplemented. The elderly can be encouraged to eat more nuts such as walnuts, almonds, and peanuts. Nuts have a good effect on brain health.

5. Have regular family days and have more emotional communication with your family

Hahaha, no matter how busy you are, you should go home often and hold some family days regularly to enhance family ties. The sense of ritual can provide more emotional communication for the elderly. Once the mind is healthy, the brain full of feelings will not be prone to memory decline.
