Neurodegenerative diseases: Alzheimer’s disease and Dementia

Neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Alzheimer’s disease and Dementia, are among the most significant medical and societal challenges of the 21st century. The progressive loss of cognitive functions, including memory, thinking, language, and decision-making characterizes these conditions. As the ageing population continues to grow, the prevalence of these disorders is increasing rapidly, making them a primary focus of research, healthcare, and public awareness.

This book provides an in-depth exploration of Alzheimer’s disease and various forms of Dementia, emphasizing the biological mechanisms that drive these conditions. One of the book’s primary focuses is the current and emerging treatments for Alzheimer’s disease and Dementia. Although no cure exists, researchers have developed various pharmacological and non-pharmacological strategies to manage symptoms and improve patient’s quality of life. The book examines innovative approaches which can enhance cognitive function and emotional well-being. It also emphasizes the importance of caregiver support, stress management, and different resources to assist families in providing compassionate care.

Beyond traditional treatments, the book explores groundbreaking advancements in neurodegenerative disease research. It discusses the potential of cellular approaches, gene editing, and neuroprotective drugs, as well as the role of artificial intelligence in early diagnosis and personalized treatment plans. Readers will gain insights into the future of neuroscience in combating Alzheimer’s and other dementias. By combining up-to-date scientific knowledge with practical strategies, this book aims to empower patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals in the fight against neurodegenerative diseases. Early detection, lifestyle modifications, and ongoing research are crucial in enhancing the quality of life for those affected.

Professor Dato’ Sri Dr. Mike K.S. Chan is a pioneer of Cellular and Cell Membrane Therapy in Europe and Asia since the early 1980’s. He founded one of the world’s largest researchers of Bio-Molecular Medicine based in Switzerland and Germany with a global presence in almost eighty countries. He has conducted more than 1,000 lectures, seminars, and symposiums worldwide in the fields of antiaging, cell regeneration, regenerative medicine, and stem-cell therapies.

Dr Dina Tulina is a specialist in anti-aging and regenerative medicine with extensive experience in the field. Basing her knowledge on scientific and research experience within the scope of neuropsychiatry (age-related brain changes and associated cognitive and mental disorders), Dr Dina has expanded and enriched her expertise by incorporating preventative medicine, natural and complementary therapies for age-related changes, and the use of biologics in regenerative medicine. Guided by the philosophy “He, who owns the youth, owns the future”, Dr Dina is deeply passionate about the educational aspects of anti-aging medicine and wellness.
