We were doing things tonight they teach you not to do in Pop Warner.
The major way we've reduced the death rate from heart disease is through lifestyle changes: eating better, exercising more, smoking less. It would require a lot of people to change the way they live, but there's no reason to think we can't have the same impact on Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia.

Perkins wasn't running as hard as he could run, and we put Hall in. Hall lays it on the ground twice, once on a pass and once on a run. So you go to your next one - Jamie Fordham.

The most likely explanation is that there is something about these individuals or about this disease that affects body mass index (BMI) before the clinical syndrome becomes apparent -- that loss of BMI reflects the disease process itself.
These findings suggest that subtle, unexplained body mass and weight loss in an older person may be an early sign of AD [Alzheimer's disease] and can precede the development of obvious memory problems.
