According to the Alzheimer’s Association, an estimated 6.2 million American’s age 65 and older are living with Alzheimer’s dementia in 2021. While there is yet to be a cure for this devastating disease, emerging research indicates there are ways to both prevent and slow its progression. This seminar is about the latest research in science-based prevention and stabilization of cognitive decline.
