Alzheimer's
Disease & Mould
Because
the effects of toxic mould (Stachybotrys) are very similar to Alzheimer's
Disease [in such ways as the loss of memory and ability to think logically,
and feeling disconnected from the world around], it is possible that
relatives and friends of toxic mould victims think that their relative's
memory losses and mental diminishment are a sign of advancing age, or of
the onset of Alzheimer's Disease. Medical researchers strongly believe
that environmental factors help trigger what is ultimately a genetic
condition. [USA Weekend, Aug. 31- Sept. 2, 2001, p. 6] Mould
contamination may be one of those environmental factors!
If someone is
experiencing memory losses and difficulty in thinking, the person's home,
office, and other living and working space should be tested for the
presence of toxic mould and other unhealthy moulds. Unlike Alzheimer's that
presently has no cure, mould CAN BE TESTED FOR AND REMOVED SAFELY.
In addition: the
environment of people with Alzheimer's should be living in a mould- free
environment so that the effects of toxic mould don't complicate and worsen
the already deteriorating mental abilities of residents of moldy
areas.

Alzheimer's disease is characterized by the gradual spread of
sticky plaques and clumps of tangled fibers that disrupt the delicate
organization of nerve cells in the brain. As brain cells stop
communicating with one another, they atrophy — causing memory and
reasoning to fade
1.
Tangles and plaques first appear in the entorhinal cortex, an essential memory processing center needed for making new memories and retrieving old ones
2.
Over time they move higher, invading the hippocapus, the past of the
brain that forms complex memories of events or objects
3.
Finally the tangles and plaques reach the top of the brain, or neocortex, the "executive" that sorts through stimuli and orchestrates all behavior. [The above illustration and
