Alzheimer's

September is World Alzheimer's Month. If you follow this blog at all, you’ll know I’ve chosen finding a cure for ALS as my principal charity. Buy the reality is, you’re more likely to get Alzheimer's than you are to come down with ALS.
Alzheimer's Disease is such a lousy condition to watch loved ones deal with. But there is growing evidence that people can prevent or reduce their risk of cognitive decline by making key lifestyle changes, including participation in regular physical activity, staying socially engaged, and maintaining good heart health. This combination, with a focus in clinical care on brain health and early detection, can have significant results.
 
The US Against Alzheimer’s website says this: “Just as we have found ways to reduce heart disease risk, researchers increasingly are finding evidence that there may be steps we can take to reduce our risk of Alzheimer’s—or at least delay its onset.
Until recently, it was not clear that there was much providers could do without pharmacological treatment. But rapidly advancing science now points to the ability to reduce dementia risk and enhance cognitive function and health as we age.”
