E 'was discovered a relationship between hypertension and Alzheimer
But it is not clear, however, whether high blood pressure to trigger the disease, or if it is caused by certain medications taken to lower blood pressure.
According to a study in Rochester University (The Sciences, February 2009), reduced blood flow to enable certain substances, such as SRF and miocardina: these are two factors that further reduce blood flow to the brain and slow down the removal of beta -amyloid.
More blood flow is reduced, less oxygen and nutrients to neurons arrive, and more beta-amyloid accumulates.
There is evidence, More and more, indicating that a poor blood supply leads, and inadequate nutrition of brain cells, is a partial removal of waste products. This makes it impossible to deal effectively with the formation of beta-amyloid plaques, which aggravate the disease.
This would also explain the increasing incidence of Alzheimer's in recent decades, in parallel with the increase of patients treated for hypertension.
Pending further research, is not the case not to lower blood pressure too? In the sense of not decrease the blood flow to the brain? Also because the gain, in terms of life expectancy (only a few months), it is not even remotely comparable with the long years of non-life and untold suffering for the sick, and especially for their families.
