Dementia: A global disaster in waiting?

It has been described as a global disaster waiting to happen, someone is diagnosed with dementia every four seconds, and the numbers are set to triple by 2050.

The degenerative condition attacks the brain, chipping away at physical and mental well-being, compromising the independence of those affected, and their dignity and to date, there is no cure.

And while the number of people affected by this illness is forecast to soar, funding for research lags way behind that of cancer and AIDS.

Yes it is .....

and people do not even realise the Symptoms.

Observing my 93 and 87 years old Parents, I giggle at their actions. 

But I know it is Serious !

there is already a cure.....

the Zionists have it.  that is why any disease happens the likely have a cure..so they can cause it at will and remain safe

look for the cause in the GMO foods, in the alcohol, in the water supply, in flouride in public water systems and so on

"When we ask why is Alzheimer's disease such a big problem, I think because there's no other disease area, where the numbers of patients are growing so fast. And the burden to the economy is so heavy."  Wang Jun from the Alzheimer's Disease Association told Al Jazeera.

The lack of funds for research has meant there has been little progress and no new treatment in 10 years.

when a disease that has not been prevalent suddenly becomes prevalent what is the reason, the cause....

it is bound to be something recent, contemporaneous with the disease..whether it is a deliberate manipulation or not...a mutation of some sort.

but I would wager that all of it is the result of conscious, deliberate manipulation

I is more worried bout Amnesia rather than dementia
