The German Alzheimer´s Association, Deutsche Alzheimer Gesellschaft (DAlzG), has published information about CTE, which is also known as Dementia Pugilistica, Punch Drunk Syndrome or Boxer’s Dementia. The impetus to deal with this topic came from Erich Grau (pictured), former American football quarterback who has been showing typical CTE symptoms for 20 years. There are no special treatment options for CTE, but various methods and therapies can make life with CTE easier.
"Psychoeducation or the avoidance of difficult situations help to deal with the beginning of dementia or aggression. Adequate sleep, healthy nutrition, sports training and concentration on the essential aspects of one's own life also provide a strong basis for the successful treatment of CTE," emphasises Erich Grau.
