Chinanews.com, Beijing, September 27. With the deepening of global aging, the number of patients with aging-related neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease continues to increase.
How to prevent and treat neurological diseases as early as possible has become one of the most worthy of attention in today's society.
On September 27th, JD Health and Professor Xu Jun, Chief Physician of the Department of Neurology of Beijing Tiantan Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University, and his team of experts, strategically cooperated with H Cube Research Institute to jointly establish JD Health Brain Nutrition Center.

In recent years, a number of epidemiological studies have shown that a healthy diet and lifestyle are associated with a reduction in the risk of central nervous system disease. As a result, "nutrition intervention" has become a research hotspot in the treatment of neurological diseases.
Taking AD as an example, the international journal "The Lancet" once pointed out that interventions in risk factors such as nutritional support and chronic disease control at the stage of mild cognitive impairment can reduce the risk of AD-related dementia by up to 45%.
It is understood that Xu Jun has been engaged in clinical work in neurology for more than 25 years, and has in-depth research in the fields of common diseases in neurology, clinical diagnosis and treatment of cognitive disorders, and pathogenesis.
After going live, JD Health Brain Nutrition Center will integrate JD Health, Professor Xu Jun and his team resources, H-Cube Research Institute and other superior capabilities, focusing on cross-medicine, bringing together neurology, cardiovascular, geriatrics, nutrition, Rehabilitation, psychology, psychiatry, endocrinology, ophthalmology, general medicine and other multidisciplinary national expert resources, jointly form a diagnosis and rehabilitation plan, and create a comprehensive system that integrates risk screening, long-term disease management, private doctors, and nutrition management. Periodic systemic patient service solutions.
As a humanistic medical service platform centered on doctor empowerment, H Cube Institute is committed to building a mutually beneficial relationship between doctors, patients and the public through high-quality medical and health science content and high-quality medical and health consulting services.
The joint construction of the Jingdong Healthy Brain Nutrition Center is also based on the early-onset trend of neurological diseases. It aims to provide a comprehensive neurological disease management plan for the entire population, including the elderly, including health consultation, self-screening, and early Disease screening, on-site screening and other health services, offline clinical diagnosis, renewal of prescription purchases for long-term medication patients, and nutrition management and other health services.
At the launch conference of the center, Xu Jun and Professor Shi Hanping, Director of the Clinical Nutrition Department of Beijing Shijitan Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University, and Chairman of the Chinese Medical Association Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition Branch, respectively delivered speeches on topics such as "Nutrition Intervention and Nutritional Therapy". Professor Zheng Yi, a well-known child mental disorder expert from Beijing Anding Hospital, Capital Medical University, Professor Xiao Weizhong, Director of Neurology Department of Peking University Third Hospital, Professor Sun Yongan, Chief Physician of Neurology Department of Peking University First Hospital, Director of Spine Orthopedics Department, Beijing Boai Hospital, China Rehabilitation Research Center Physician Professor Wang Fangyong, and Professor Qiu Huaiyu, chief physician of the Department of Ophthalmology of Chaoyang Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University, jointly discussed the "Expert Consensus on Alzheimer's Disease Brain Health Nutrition Intervention" and interpreted related issues.
Experts believe that early intervention and comprehensive management are important means to pay attention to AD nutrition and promote brain health.
The launch of the center will provide full-process health management services for patients with neurological diseases by bringing together expert resources across multiple disciplines across the country, and strive for "golden time" for early intervention and delay of disease development for more people.
