Has it ever happened to you that when you come home after a hard day at work, or maybe after a wild party, you just want to collapse on your favorite bed without even brushing your teeth? Now pay attention , a question for “almost falling asleep”: What do you think (not Google or the GPT chatbot, but you😉), what does brushing your teeth have to do with psychology and brain function?🤯🧠I asked this question on my social networks, but the only correct one The person who answered turned out to be...My mother!))) – Mom, do you brush your teeth before going to bed? – Oh, I try. But sometimes I forget or I’m lazy when I’m tired. “We need to clean it, mom, so that our brains work well and there is no Alzheimer’s.” Guess why and what is the connection? – Well, probably... Probably there is some kind of bacteria that affects the brain. Like how Helicobacter affects the stomach... – BINGO!!! This was the section #MotherMedica))) Porphyromonas gingivalis is a rod-shaped anaerobic pathogenic bacterium, widely known for its ability to cause periodontitis and many other diseases of the oral cavity. Over the past few years, information has emerged that porphyromonas plays an important role in the development of diseases such as pancreatic cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic diseases of the cardiovascular system (including heart attack and stroke) and neurodegenerative diseases, such as like Alzheimer's disease. Want details? So, let's go! ⛷⛹‍♀🏄‍♀🏇There are scientific studies that establish a connection between the bacterium Porphyromonas gingivalis and Alzheimer's disease. It has long been known that the bacterium Porphyromonas gingivalis lives mainly in the oral cavity and is involved in the development of gum disease. But recent studies have shown that it can spread along nerve fibers to the brain, causing inflammation of brain tissue, which, in turn, can increase the risk development of Alzheimer's disease. Some studies have linked the bacterium Porphyromonas gingivalis to disruption of microglial cells, which are responsible for protecting the brain from infections and inflammatory processes. Scientists continue to study the mechanisms of this connection and are trying to understand how this information can be used to develop new methods of treating and preventing Alzheimer's disease.☝️But we now know at least one method of prevention: good oral hygiene 👄What do you think about all of the above?More Read more unusual news in my TG channel: “Psychology, money, relationships” And I’m also waiting for you for a free diagnostic consultation
