Ke hoʻonui nei nā genes i pili i ka cholesterol kiʻekiʻe a me ke koko kiʻekiʻe i ka pilikia o Alzheimer's?

Manaʻo mākou a pau i ko mākou mau mākua a me nā kūpuna i ko mākou wā ʻelemakule, ʻeā? I kekahi manawa ke poina iā lākou nā mea liʻiliʻi, manaʻo mākou, "ʻAuē, ʻo kēia ke ʻano o ko mākou wā ʻelemakule." Akā, ʻaʻole maʻamau nā poina a pau. I kekahi manawa, hiki ke lilo i hōʻailona mua o kahi maʻi koʻikoʻi e like me Alzheimer's, ka mea e hoʻoulu mālie ai i ka nalowale o ka hoʻomanaʻo. I kēia manawa, ua hōʻike ʻia kahi noiʻi hou aia kahi pilina ma waena o kā mākou mau genes, cholesterol, a me ke koko, a me ka maʻi Alzheimer ma ke ʻano a mākou i manaʻo ʻole ai. E kamaʻilio hohonu kākou e pili ana i kēia i kēia lā.

He aha kēia ʻike hou loa?

Ua hui pū kekahi hui o nā kānaka noiʻi ma ʻEulopa e hana i kahi noiʻi nui loa. Ua pili kēia ma mua o 39,000 mau kānaka me ka maʻi Alzheimer a ʻoi aku ma mua o 400,000 mau kānaka me ka ʻole o ka maʻi. No laila, ʻo ka mea a lākou i ʻike ai ka mea i hoʻopūʻiwa maoli i nā poʻe he nui.

I ka ʻōlelo maʻalahi, ua ʻike lākou ma muli o ko mākou mau mana hoʻoilina, ua maʻalahi kekahi poʻe i ka loaʻa ʻana o ka cholesterol kiʻekiʻe a me ke koko kiʻekiʻe, a ʻoi aku ka nui o ka pilikia o kēlā poʻe i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i ka maʻi Alzheimer.

I kēia manawa, e noʻonoʻo paha ʻoe, "He aha kēia mau genes?" ʻO nā genes he mau ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo liʻiliʻi a mākou e hoʻoilina ai mai ko mākou mau mākua e hoʻoholo ai i nā mea āpau i loko o ko mākou kino. Hoʻopilikia kēia mau genes i nā mea āpau mai ke kala o ko mākou lauoho a me nā maka a hiki i nā maʻi a mākou e ulu ai. No laila, hōʻike kēia haʻawina e hoʻopilikia pū nā genes e pili ana i ke koko a me ka cholesterol i ka maʻi Alzheimer.

Pehea e pili ai ka cholesterol a me ke kaomi i kēia?

Ua hōʻike kēia haʻawina i ʻelua mau manaʻo maopopo loa. I mea e maʻalahi ai ka hoʻomaopopo ʻana, e nānā kākou i kēia ʻano.

I kēia manawa, he nīnau nui paha kāu. Ua lohe mau mākou ʻo ka cholesterol HDL ka "cholesterol maikaʻi." No laila pehea e hoʻonui ai ka hoʻonui ʻana i ka pilikia o Alzheimer's? ʻO kēia ka mea hoihoi loa i kēia haʻawina a he mea e pono ai ka nui o ka noiʻi hou aku. Hāʻawi kekahi poʻe loea i nā wehewehe like ʻole no kēia, a e kamaʻilio pū mākou e pili ana i kēlā.

He aha maoli ka maʻi o Alzheimer?

Ma mua o ko kākou kamaʻilio ʻana e pili ana i kēia, e hoʻomaopopo iki kākou e pili ana i ka maʻi Alzheimer. I ka ʻōlelo maʻalahi, ʻo Alzheimer kahi maʻi e make mālie ai ko kākou mau hunaola lolo a emi mālie ka lolo. ʻO kēia ke ʻano nui a maʻamau o ka dementia, he hui o nā maʻi nalowale hoʻomanaʻo.

ʻO ka mea e hana ʻia ma kēia maʻi,

• ʻO ka mea mua, hoʻomaka ʻoe e poina i nā mea i hana ʻia i hala koke aku nei.
• Hiki iā ʻoe ke poina i ka lā, ka manawa, a me ka wahi.
• I ka hala ʻana o ka manawa, lilo mākou i mea hiki ʻole ke hoʻomaopopo i ka poʻe a mākou i ʻike maikaʻi ai, ʻoiai nā lālā o ka ʻohana.
• Lilo nā mea e like me ke kamaʻilio ʻana a me ka hoʻoholo ʻana i nā hoʻoholo e lilo i mea paʻakikī.
• I ka hopena, hiki lākou i kahi pae kahi hiki ʻole iā lākou ke hana i kā lākou hana ponoʻī.

He kūlana ʻeha a paʻakikī loa kēia no ka mea maʻi a me ko lākou ʻohana.

He aha ka ʻōlelo a nā loea e pili ana i kēia?

Ua loaʻa i nā loea maʻi Alzheimer a puni ka honua nā manaʻo like ʻole i kēia noiʻi. Ua ʻōlelo kekahi kauka ʻAmelika kaulana ʻaʻole i komo i ka noiʻi e pili ana i ia mea:

E like me kāna ʻōlelo ʻana, "ʻOiai he ʻike koʻikoʻi kēia, ʻaʻole hiki iā mākou ke huki i kekahi mau hopena nui mai kēia wale nō. He mea kēia e pono e hōʻoia hou ʻia."

Hāʻawi ʻo ia i hoʻokahi wehewehe no ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ʻo ka hoʻonui ʻana i ka "cholesterol maikaʻi" (HDL) e hoʻonui i ka pilikia o Alzheimer's. E noʻonoʻo e pili ana i kēia ʻano. ʻO ke kanaka me ka pae HDL kiʻekiʻe e palekana nui ʻia mai ka maʻi puʻuwai. No laila, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o kona ola ʻana ma mua o nā poʻe ʻē aʻe. I kona ola lōʻihi ʻana, piʻi koke ka pilikia o ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi maʻi e like me Alzheimer's e hele mai me ka ʻelemakule. No laila, inā he pilina pololei kēia a i ʻole he pilina ʻaʻole pololei e like me kēia, pono e noiʻi hou ʻia.

Eia kekahi, ʻoiai ua mālama ʻia kēia noiʻi me ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā heluna kanaka ʻEulopa, pono e ʻike ʻia i ka wā e hiki mai ana i ka nui o ka pili ʻana o kēia mau hopena iā mākou ma Asia, ʻoiai ʻo Sri Lanka.

No laila he aha kā mākou e hana ai?

Ke heluhelu ʻoe e pili ana i nā noiʻi e like me kēia, makaʻu paha ʻoe. Manaʻo paha ʻoe, "Auē, he koko kiʻekiʻe koʻu, he cholesterol kiʻekiʻe, e loaʻa anei iaʻu ka maʻi Alzheimer?" Akā, mai hopohopo.

Aia nō kēia i ke kahua noiʻi. ʻAʻole kēia manaʻo e loaʻa i nā kānaka a pau me ke kolamu kiʻekiʻe a i ʻole ke koko kiʻekiʻe ka maʻi Alzheimer. ʻO ia hoʻi, hiki ke hoʻonui iki ʻia ka pilikia no ka poʻe i loaʻa i kēlā mau kūlana ma ke ʻano genetic.

ʻO ka mea maikaʻi loa e hiki iā kākou ke hana, ʻo ia ke hahai i nā ʻōlelo aʻo a kā mākou kauka a mālama i nā kūlana e like me ke koko kiʻekiʻe, nā pae cholesterol, a me ka maʻi diabetes. He mea nui loa hoʻi ka lawe ʻana i kahi nohona olakino. ʻO ia hoʻi,

• Ka ʻai ʻana i ka meaʻai kaulike maikaʻi.
• Hoʻoikaika kino mau.
• Ke pale ʻana i ka puhi paka a me ka waiʻona.
• Hoʻemi i ke kaumaha.

Inā manaʻo ʻoe a i ʻole kekahi o kou ʻohana he pilikia kou no ka hoʻomanaʻo ʻana, mai makaʻu a hilahila paha no ia mea, akā e ʻike koke i kāu kauka ʻohana a kamaʻilio e pili ana i ia mea. E hana ʻo ia i nā hoʻokolohua e pono ai a hāʻawi iā ʻoe i ka ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo kūpono.
