   Is Mycotoxicosis Posing as Alzheimer's Disease?   
      
   Alzheimer's disease is the most common form of dementia and currently affects   
   over 3 million senior citizens in America. Although it does not appear to run   
   in my family, I am always saddened when I see someones grandmother or   
   grandfather with Alzheimer's.   
    Early symptoms of the disease include confusion, loss of short-term memory,   
   problems with attention and spatial orientation, changes in personality,   
   language difficulties and unexplained mood swings. But these same exact   
   symptoms have also been    
   attributed to mycotoxicosis, or mold poisoning.   
   While most people may still think of mold as a common cause for sneezing, sore   
   throats, and coughing, more recent mold research has shown a definitive link   
   between some types of toxic mold and cognitive disorders such as Alzheimer's.   
   Short term memory    
   loss, lack of concentration, inability to maintain focus or complete simple   
   tasks are found in many people suffering from mycotoxicosis.   
   At the present time, an autopsy is the only test that can confirm a diagnosis   
   of Alzheimer's. It's very possible that some people diagnosed with early   
   symptoms of Alzheimer's disease may actually just have a mold problem.   
   It's also possible that mold may even be a contributing factor in causing   
   Alzheimer's, or mold may at least exacerbate the symptoms. But much more   
   research is needed on this subject. In any event, it's best that people with   
   Alzheimer's disease live in a    
   mold-free environment so that the effects of toxic mold do not complicate   
   their symptoms.   
   It's important to investigate cases of Alzheimer's for mold because while   
   Alzheimer's disease is not curable, mold is removable. This reason alone makes   
   it worth the effort to check out the home and living conditions of people with   
   these symptoms.    
   Sometimes cognitive disorders caused by mold can be alleviated if the mold is   
   removed.
