Forgetting does not always mean dementia

Berlin- Professor Andreas Vijibel said that forgetting does not always mean dementia, but may be due to other causes, such as stress, physical and mental stress and lack of fluid.

The scientific director of the memory clinic of the University of Medicine of Mainz in Germany believes that these reasons lead to forgetfulness from time to time, which is natural and does not call for worry.

You should consult your doctor if you forget or if you are unable to lead a normal life. For example, if you suddenly have difficulty doing the usual work, then memory strikes may indicate dementia.

He emphasized the importance of early diagnosis of dementia, in which early psychological treatment has a positive impact on the course of the disease and helps to improve the quality of life of the patient.

A healthy lifestyle, based on a healthy and balanced diet, exercises and outdoor activities, as well as recreation and social relationships, helps prevent memory problems.
