Can Alzheimer’s disease be prevented?
In The Science of Alzheimer’s and the Promise of Prevention, Harvard-trained neurologist Dr. Richard Isaacson, M.D., brings you up to speed on the science of Alzheimer’s and answers the most common questions patients and caregivers have about its prevention and treatment.
Recent research has uncovered compelling ways to protect and defend the brain against Alzheimer’s while improving memory and cognition. Combining his deep understanding of current studies and firsthand experience treating thousands of patients, Dr. Isaacson provides you with a practical guide to your mental health. Throughout, you will receive actionable guidance as you learn more about the disease and assess your own risk factors.
Did you know that Alzheimer’s actually begins in the brain decades before symptoms of memory loss or other cognitive and behavioral changes appear?
Importantly, modern science suggests that there are certain characteristics that may increase your chances of developing Alzheimer’s (e.g., increased age, family history of the disease, and genetics). But there are also “modifiable” risk factors—meaning that you can change your behavior to reduce your chance of developing the disease.
Armed with knowledge of the latest research, you can take early action to benefit your own brain health today.
