Dementia Rates Are Higher Near Busy Roads

Researchers have found out that people who live near major roads have higher rates of dementia. Dementia is a sickness that lets you forget yourself and the things you usually do can never be recalled. The brain of the patient is affected with some issues on dementia. The memories of the brains are robbed by dementia. This case is so hard to understand. This is a very disgusting disease if see a member in your family or a friend cannot anymore recognize you no matter what you do to make them know you, nothing happens in the forcing of them to remember everything. This is related to Parkinson’s disease if not immediately diagnosed. The brain is also affected with those sick of PD. There are issues of dementia and Parkinson’s disease that led to the patients suffer more from the complications. They are not fatal but the complications are what make the sickness fatal.

According to a research study, about ten per cent of dementia cases in people living within fifty meters of a major road could be down to traffic. Those who live near air polluted places or a noisy traffic could be could be contributing to the decline of the brain. The doctors and the dementia experts said they are certainly plausible of their findings. They also found out that there are nearly fifty (50) million people have dementia. There are so many affected with this sickness. Will it be not good to live near the streets? I think this is case to case for there are people who live near the road but that road not noisy and polluted. It is well defined in the study of the scientists and expert doctors that those affected or sick of dementia live in highly urbanized cite where pollution is inevitable so with noise. It will be better to reside in the suburbs for there is always fresh air and mind so relax when the ambiance is so clean and green pollution-free.

It was learned in the studies abroad by expert researchers and scientists that there is very less occurrence of dementia to people living far from the noisy and polluted road compared to those living closest to major roads. Risks are higher if live closest to roads. There are people who like to live near the road.

The analysis of the researchers suggested that those sick of dementia cases that live within fifty meters of a major road could be caused by traffic. The researchers abroad also reported that the increasing population growth and urbanization have placed many people close to heavy traffic, and with widespread exposure to traffic and growing rates of dementia, even a modest effect from near-road exposure could pose a large public health burden.

According to the study of the researchers abroad that they are certainly plausible that air pollution from motor exhaust fumes may contribute to brain pathology that over time may increase the risk of dementia and this evidence will add to the unease of people who live in areas of high traffic concentration. The government must implement no to pollution in the roads from motor fumes, vehicles and even old cars. It is not indeed god for anyone to live near a congested road where traffic is highly noisy and polluted to avoid getting sick of dementia. Living near a busy and noisy road crank anyone thus making the brain distracted.

    • In my opinion, as I have observed with demented people, the cause is due to the non-activity of the brain anymore. The person, who is just at home doing household chores compared to one whose brains is active or have a job still, is more prone to dementia.

      My mother-in-law is now mildly demented. She will ask a question sometimes impertinent one many times a day, because she forgets having asked it many times already, but would remember events or happenings in the past. This started when she doesn't read books or magazines anymore but would just watch TV or do household chores.

      However, I know that engaging in a writing site such as this site would really challenge the brain always, as you would think of what to write and comment.

      I hope that writing sites will still be here when the time comes that I have to mandatorily retire. :)

    • @Dina, Not exactly, scientists and researchers conducted their research about causes of dementia and the findings here are among the possible cause of dementia. It is not the reason of having no work because a teacher in the school where I work before was sick of dementia and died after 3 years because she cannot anymore eat due to her disease. She lacks appetite and she describes food as bad foods.
