पुस्ता फरक हुन सक्छ, सम्बन्ध टाढा हुनुहुँदैन ।

जब पुस्ताहरूबीच संवाद हुन्छ,
अनुभव साटिन्छ, नयाँ कुरा सिकिन्छ, एक्लोपन घट्छ र सम्बन्ध अझ बलियो बन्छ ।

ज्येष्ठ नागरिकसँग जीवनभरको अनुभव, ज्ञान र सम्झना हुन्छ ।

युवा पुस्तासँग नयाँ सोच, प्रविधि र सम्भावना हुन्छ ।
अन्तरपुस्ता संवाद बढाऔँ, अनुभव र सम्बन्ध जोडौँ ।

अन्तर्राष्ट्रिय ज्येष्ठ नागरिक दिवसको हार्दिक शुभकामना ।
दीर्घायुको युग: लामो जीवनका लागि हाम्रा प्रणालीबारे पुनर्विचार गरौँ ।

Alzheimer’s Disease

21/09/2026

🧠 **Can Alzheimer's disease, including other dementias, be prevented, or can we at least reduce the risk before memory problems begin?**

On the occasion of **World Alzheimer’s Day**, we are pleased to share an insightful article by **Prof. Dr. Ramesh Kandel**, a geriatric health expert and **Executive Member of the Geriatric Society of Nepal (GSN)**.

In this article, Prof. Dr. Kandel highlights an important message: protecting brain health should begin long before old age. Drawing on current evidence, he discusses the modifiable risk factors for dementia and explains how individuals, families, health professionals, and society can all contribute to healthier ageing and better brain health.

The article also brings these global recommendations into the **Nepali context**, emphasizing the importance of education, physical activity, hearing and vision care, cardiovascular risk-factor control, social engagement, road safety, and cleaner environments.
