(Contributed by Modern Chinese School) The parent lecture activities of Modern Chinese School have been continued for many years. The school uses the time of parents to wait for their children to go to class to hold various lectures. It not only enriches everyone's amateur cultural life, but also provides parents with information and experience in work, life, children's education, physical health, etc., and is very popular with everyone.

School leader He Qi introduced the content of the lecture

On March 28, 2014, the school invited Dr. Chen Kewei, a parent and teacher of former school students, to give a special lecture on the prevention of Alzheimer's disease and related research progress. Chen Kewei is a senior scientist at the Banner Alzheimer's Institute. He has many years of research experience using neuroimaging technology in related fields and has long-term cooperation with several universities in this state and China.

Dr. Chen Kewei is explaining to everyone the comparison of pathogens of Alzheimer's disease

Dr. Chen Kewei first introduced several risk genes and pathogenic genes related to Alzheimer's disease. Like age, genetics and other factors are beyond our control. We can actually proactively do many things to reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease. For example, the protection of the brain in our daily life includes a reasonable diet, a healthy and regular lifestyle, active physical exercise, appropriate aerobic exercise, control of blood pressure, blood lipids, blood sugar, etc. under the guidance of a doctor, proper taking of vitamins, etc. These are certainly good for our physical health and also have a protective effect on the brain.

A lonely and closed life is not good for brain health. Being cheerful and optimistic, active in thinking, with a wide range of interests, paying attention to external things, and being good at interacting with others is very beneficial to the health of the body, mind, and brain. Everyone builds their own circle of friends and actively participates in social activities to make themselves happy and the whole family happy.

In addition, relevant research results show that learning new and challenging knowledge or skills so that your brain is constantly stimulated by positive stimulation is also an effective way to keep your brain nerves healthy. In short, a positive attitude towards life and a healthy and happy lifestyle must be the goal pursued by every successful aging person.

In addition to his own active and effective factors in maintaining health, Dr. Chen Kewei introduced in the lecture the Alzheimer’s Prevention Initiative (Alzheimer’s Prevention Initiative), which is supported by the cooperation and support of many research units such as the Banner Alzheimer’s Institute, drug development manufacturers, and the federal government. He invited parents and friends of students to participate in the program as volunteers. To this end, he provided the volunteer registration website www.endALZnow.org established for the research plan. Participating in this research is a joint effort by all of us to make our own contribution to the early overcoming of diseases that cause pain to the patient, impose mental and economic burdens on the patient's family and the entire society, and seriously affect the quality of life. At the same time, the startup plan will also provide each participant with the latest relevant research results from time to time, including how to change lifestyles to reduce the risk of disease. So it is something that is beneficial to society and individuals.

Finally, Dr. Chen demonstrated the abnormal brain changes related to Alzheimer's disease observed using neuroimaging technology. Brain images were displayed in front of the audience one by one. Dr. Chen explained the difference between normal and diseased brain images from a professional perspective, allowing the audience to understand and understand the medical diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease from a scientific perspective.

The classroom is packed with seats

The lecture ended in a packed venue, with many parents surrounding Chen Kewei for further discussions. There were many issues that everyone was concerned about, and the discussions were very lively. Some were concerned about how to prevent it as early as possible, some were concerned about helping parents consult, and some were conveyed to friends who came in a hurry and could not hear the lecture. Yes, health is the top priority for people. In the Internet age, I believe everyone receives more than one or two messages about health every day. This shows how important health is to life, life, family, and society. Thanks to Dr. Chen Kewei for his speech and the medical and health care knowledge he brought to everyone, we can make everyone aware of preventing Alzheimer's disease from a young age. I hope that each of us can be healthy, free from disease and disaster, and live a long and happy life.
