Final thoughts

The very thought of developing Alzheimer’s disease or even having the disease is frightening and at times, it can be overwhelming. It is one of the biggest concerns for most individuals that come with aging. Researchers are continuously focusing on new ways to develop new treatment methods and prevention strategies. What they have discovered up till now is that there are ways in which you can take a more personalized approach to AD, that is, you can prevent or delay symptoms of AD. Promising research shows that you do not have to wait and hope for the best but rather you have the opportunity to take matters into your own hands. You can reduce your risk of Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia by recognizing and controlling your individual risk factors. What’s more, through a combination of simple yet effective lifestyle changes, you can prevent symptoms of AD and even slow down or reverse the process of deterioration. It is never too late to make healthy lifestyle changes by exploring the impact of diet, exercise, social engagement, and mental stimulation.
