Dementia can come in many forms, with one of the more rare types - frontotemporal dementia (FTD) - causing problems with behaviour and language, with food choices potentially indicating the condition

Dementia refers to a collection of syndromes associated with memory loss. Frequently, some people get puzzled about the disparity between Alzheimer's disease and dementia.

Alzheimer's is essentially a form of dementia and comprises the majority of cases along with vascular dementia. Although Alzheimer's tops the list as the most prevalent type of dementia, frontotemporal dementia , a relatively less common subset, results in behavioural and language issues. Diet choices could help identify this condition, reports the Daily Record.

According to Alzheimer's UK, FTD sufferers might "crave sweet, fatty foods, or carbohydrates and forget their table manners," concurring, "They may also no longer know when to stop eating, drinking alcohol, or smoking."
