Can we slow down the aging process?

Over one hundred years ago, German psychiatrist Dr Alois Alzheimer reported a neurodegenerative dementia that we know now as Alzheimer’s disease. Alzheimer’s disease is the most common type of neurodegenerative dementia among elderly. In general, Alzheimer’s disease is diagnosed in people over the age of 65 but there are also those who are affected at much earlier age.

Alzheimer is one of many diseases that comes with aging. The earliest symptom of Alzheimer’s disease is loss of short term memory. During the course of the disease patients experience confusion, aggressive behavior, hallucination, mood swings, language deficit and lastly the loss of long term memory.

Recently, scientists realized that a compound in red wine can possibly slow down the aging process. The miracle compound is Resveratrol which is found in the skin of grape and they found that this compound is so healthy that can expand your life by 20 years or more.

The compound activates a gene that is then responsible for slowing down the aging process and it fights also diseases that come with aging and keeps you chronologically younger ( see Resveratrol Reviews ).

It is still a long way off to cure these diseases, but the preventive measures such as mental and physical exercise and healthy diet are highly recommended. On the other hand the pharmaceutical companies are looking at how soon they could get this compound in pill form.
