In the early stages there are often no particular symptoms, so the disease may go unnoticed and be discovered only after it has progressed considerably. People who have diabetes or high blood pressure, or who have a family history of kidney disease, need regular testing. If a health checkup reveals a kidney abnormality, please consult a medical specialist to confirm it.

Dementia Prevention

#dementia prevention, #three do's and three don'ts, #depression, #stress, #aerobic exercise

Dementia does not appear suddenly; it results from harmful changes that accumulate in the brain over a long period of time. Building good habits in daily life from a young age is the best way to help prevent it. Making an ongoing effort to protect one's own health is especially important. If you or a loved one notices signs of memory loss or other cognitive changes, please consult a medical specialist.
