Nakuba kuyinto evamile ukukhohlwa izinto kancane njengoba sikhula, ngezinye izikhathi sonke sinokwesaba ezinhliziyweni zethu ukuthi lokhu kukhohlwa kuzophenduka isimo esibucayi, akunjalo? Ikakhulukazi lapho umuntu osekhulile njengomama, ubaba, ugogo, noma umkhulu eqala ukukhohlwa izinto, sinokungabaza, "Ingabe lokhu kuyisiqalo se-dementia?" Lesi yisihloko esibucayi kakhulu.

- Ukukhuluphala ngokweqile: Ucwaningo lukhombisile ukuthi ubuchopho babantu abanokukhuluphala bubonisa ezinye zezinguquko ezifanayo nalezo ezibonakala ebuchosheni beziguli ezine-Alzheimer's.
- Ukuphuza utshwala ngokweqile: Ukuphuza utshwala ngokweqile isikhathi eside kulimaza ngqo amangqamuzana obuchopho. Kuyisici esikhulu esiyingozi sokulahlekelwa yingqondo.
Kubaluleke kangakanani ukulala nempilo yengqondo?
Ukulala kahle kanye nempilo enhle yengqondo kuyizinto ezimbili ezibalulekile ebuchosheni obuphilile.
- I-Sleep Apnea: Lesi simo, lapho ukuphefumula kuyeka okwesikhashana ngesikhathi sokulala, kunciphisa inani lomoya-mpilo ofinyelela ebuchosheni. Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, lokhu kungasheshisa ukuguga kobuchopho futhi kwandise ingozi yokuwohloka komqondo.
- Amaphilisi Okulala: Kunobufakazi bokuthi ukusetshenziswa isikhathi eside kwamaphilisi okulala kungandisa ingozi yokuwohloka komqondo. Kubalulekile ukuxoxa ngalokhu nodokotela wakho ngaphambi kokwenza noma yiziphi izinqumo.
- Amaphupho amabi nokulala okungaphumuli: Kusolwa ukuthi izimo ezifana namaphupho amabi avamile kanye nesifo semilenze engaphumuli kungaba uphawu lokuqala noma isici esiyingozi sokukhubazeka komqondo.
