Deans' stroke musings: Body mass index, diet, physical inactivity, and the incidence of dementia in 1 million UK women

Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

Body mass index, diet, physical inactivity, and the incidence of dementia in 1 million UK women

Based on this your doctor has to get you 100% recovered so you can do the physical activities needed to prevent obesity. THIS IS YOUR DOCTOR'S RESPONSIBILITY. Guidelines will not be enough, demand accountability from your doctor.

Body mass index, diet, physical inactivity, and the incidence of dementia in 1 million UK women

Neurology® — Floud S, Simpson RF, Balkwill A, et al. | January 16, 2020

In a large, 20-year, prospective study, researchers ascertained if midlife obesity is a cause of dementia and if low BMI, low caloric intake, and physical inactivity are causes or merely consequences of the gradual onset of dementia. In total, over 1.1 million UK women (mean age: 56 [SD: 5] years) were recruited and queried about their height, weight, caloric intake, and inactivity. The researchers concluded that midlife obesity is the only factor examined likely to be causally related to dementia.
