Please don't forget to eat your fiber

Getting plenty of fiber is recommended for digestive health. But a high-fiber diet may also be good for your brain. Two new studies found that the more fiber people tended to eat, the lower their risk of developing Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia in old age.

fiber can help with constipation, so you mean constipation may risk causing damage to the brain?

Yes!

Irregular Pooping Could Age Your Brain by 3 Years compared with participants who had regular daily bowel movements, participants who were constipated had significantly worse cognition. The difference between these groups was roughly the equivalent of three years of aging.

In a series of new studies, researchers investigated the link between constipation and cognitive decline. They found that one bowel movement every 3 days or less frequently is linked to higher levels of cognitive decline.

3 months back., my dad's Geriatrician has determined my dad has initial signs of dementia tru some memory test. Next visit will test again, any degradation observed will try medication. In a way his lack of mobility is good thing, cause he won't loiter outside and get lost.

Yup. My mum diagnosed last year. But she has problems with registering new info. 

The cny and my uncle's recent cremation, my cousins and her siblings all bit shocked by the difference. 

Tbh, meds don't seem to be helping. She's worse this year compared to when she started meds. If there's any retardation with donezepil, I don't see it.
