Your brain's ability to learn and remember
recent events - is directly related to your mental fitness. As
researchers and doctors fighting diseases like Bipolar depression and
Alzheimer's are finding out - the brain of a disease victim suffers
decrements (reductions) in its short-term memory and learning
capacities.
Today, iBHEALTH network operates an online Zithromax (Azithromycin)
Memory Fitness and Mental Health monitoring services - and for ten
dollars a year - an individual can establish their personal baseline
record of their short-term memory and learning performance
capacities.
The test
involved is like a simple video game and takes less than a minute to
play through any online computer.
In the case of Alzheimer's treatment and
care-giving, this online testing provides accurate assessment of
patient's treatment response.
No one know when the disease process actually
starts developing in the body. Because it is a degenerative disease -
meaning the body's immune systems naturally hold the disease at bay -
there reaches a time when the body cannot standup against the process.
Researchers believe that the degenerative process is effected by
everything in the environment, the individual's diet - caloric and
nutritional qualities considered, mental stimulation and body
chemistry. Theoretically, the disease process could be working against
the brain at early ages - in fact, this is more than likely true.
Habits like dietary intakes, smoking, mental and physical exercising -
all condition the body - one way or the other. When the conditioning
set-up the body's chemistry and health so the disease process makes
headway - rest assured the disease will advance.
The iBMEMORY systems allow individuals to
establish a record of their personal memory and mental fitness
condition. At the simplest of levels, individuals can subscribe to a
personal short-term memory and learning performance testing service -
taking a simple video-game like "test" - where multiple scores are
presented as a series of graphs - illustrating the person's "baseline
history" or normal scores for these cognitive reasoning functions. If
the individual who has established a baseline record - returns to the
testing center and scores below an acceptable range - the program asks
them to return and take the tests again.
If the results are consistently low -
something is wrong - and they need to take a copy of their baseline
record - and consult with their doctors as soon as possible.
There could be several reason why their
testing scores are low - but, they are all serious and all qualify for
valid reasons to consult with your doctors.
Doctors often first see an Alzheimer's victim
who has not established a baseline record of their memory fitness - and
a "normal" rating can quickly be produced. From that time on the doctor
can "throttle" the difficulty of the test and track a patient's
progress or treatment response. For more information about the online
short-term memory testing visit the End Alzheimer's 2012 Task Force BrainLane Area.
