The 4th national week of tracking of the denutrition of the seniors ends Saturday June 28. She unites the general public, the professionals of health and the setting of the patients affected by Alzheimer's illness, to debate the tie of the dénutrition with this neurological pathology.
Some clinical studies permit today to affirm that the dénutrition would be a factor prédictif of Alzheimer's illness. Indeed, on 860 000 people affected by Alzheimer's illness, 40 to 50% of the French patients lost the weight, as the diagnosis has been put.
The big themes landed at the time of the week are the incentive of the patients or their setting to make themselves track down, the diagnosis by the health professionals and the setting up of a hold in specific nutritional charge for these particular patients.
Of the clothes that float, the face that digs itself, the silhouette that changes, a lack of appetite, of possible pains... These signs reveal a dénutrition that doesn't deceive. To come back to a healthy food, tempt to vary food, to maintain a rhythm of 3 meals per days and drink regularly. Such are the best remedies.
Fortunately for the patients affected by Alzheimer's illness, he is demonstrated that when they have access to an adequate food and quality, the loss of weight is not unavoidable.
