Clear and simple!
it would have been helpful to have examples of both behaviour patterns, not a vague statement, then a specific example for the aging related
Just a friendly reminder from a music therapist. Enjoy the many benefits of singing familiar songs when ever you get the chance to let it happen! Who needs the right lyrics? Make up your own around an affirmation for healthy living.i.e.using “She’ll be Comin around the Mountain “substitute..”I am exercising every chance I get”. At times when you find yourself TELLING yourself something to remember, try SINGING it instead! Allow the brain to form a new pathway as a memory aid.

I'm concerned about having this disease when I get older. Both of my parents passed away with it and I'm curious about what my chances are of dealing with it too.
if you go to 23andme you can get a At home DNA test and they have that as one of the tests, you can even ask your physician to check you for the genetic marker. if you do 23 and me and the health report isn't complete, cause they have changed things, you can go to Prometheas.com and it for a 5 dollar fee, will scan your DNA(using it from 23andme) and give you a very though rough health report. Staying physically active, eating healthy and constantly using your brain, is suppose to help ward off alzheimers.
Very helping and understanding introduction to AD and early signs of disease.
