This threatens to senile dementia

Academician Bekhterev, the man that devoted his life to the study of the brain, once said that the great good fortune to die, not having lost on the road of life the mind, it will be given only 20% of people. The rest of the old age, alas, become evil or naive marazmatik and ballast will be on the shoulders of their own grandchildren and adult children. 80% - is significantly higher than the number of those who are destined for the dead of the statistics of cancer, Parkinson's disease or laid up in his old age by bone fragility
. In order to enter in the future, happy 20%, will have to try now.

The famous Soviet poet Z brought a universal recipe for a healthy life, which, remember, was forced to memorize all high school students. Yes, the same quatrain:





"Do not let your soul be lazy,
so that the water is not to pound in a mortar,
and the soul must work hard day and night,
and day and night. »

In fact, over the years, almost all start to be lazy. The paradox - we work a lot in his youth in order not to have problems in old age. And it turns out the other way around. * The more we are soothing and relaxing, the greater the harm to bring yourself. *

Query level is reduced to a banal set of "eat - plenty of sleep." Disappear worries about daily bread. Intellectual work is reduced to solving a crossword.
But unreasonably increases the level of claims and claims to life and to others: "I drank some difficulties, now you have twisted!»
Davit burden of the past, and because it is not always easy.
And the percentage is increasing categorical judgments tsenochnyh.
Irritation from a misunderstanding of something results in a rejection of reality.

Man, without knowing it, it becomes stupid, if not transformed into a tyrant, increasing the gap between themselves and the outside world.
It becomes hostile, blind and deaf to the call of loved ones.
Loses physical and intellectual form.
He suffers from memory, ability to think.
And gradually, people moving away from the real world, creating their own, often violent and hostile, painful fantasy world from which everyone who comes into contact with him, I want to run as far as possible, aimlessly.

Most of all dementia threatens those who lived a life without changing your settings. Such features as excessive integrity, tenacity, conservatism likely lead to dementia in old age than flexibility, the ability to rapidly change solutions, emotionality. "The main guys, the heart does not get old!" - Wrote another famous Russian classic. The one at the age of almost eighty years, married a woman 40 years younger than himself. And, they say, I am still happy.

The first swallow.
