Alzheimer’s Disease is one of the biggest concerns many of us have as we get older. Your memory often changes as you grow older. But memory loss that disrupts daily life is not a typical part of aging.

While you may have been told that all you can do is hope for the best and wait for a pharmaceutical cure, the truth is much more encouraging. There’s strong evidence that several factors associated with leading a healthy lifestyle may play a role in reducing your risk of Alzheimer’s disease and other types of dementia. By leading a brain-healthy lifestyle, you may be able to prevent the symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease and slow down, or even reverse, the process of deterioration.
