This link above is for a book written by Barry Krakow MD
The importance here is the connection between sound sleep and Alzheimers
Science has shown one of the causes of Alzheimers is Amyloid Plaque build-up in in the brain.
Science has also shown that when we sleep, the brain cells shrink as much as 60%.
This extra room allows our Cerebro-Spinal Fluid to get into those areas and remove the Amyloid Plaque.
BUT in order to do this, the person must have a good night’s sleep.
PLEASE check out this book; pay attention; and pass this info forward to others in your circle.
I do not want a single patient of mine to develop Alzheimers.
Happy 11/12/13
To your health,
