🧠 Understanding Alzheimer’s: Facts You Should Know
Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive, degenerative brain disorder that slowly destroys memory and thinking skills. It is the most common cause of dementia, affecting over 6.9 million people in the United States as of 2024 (Alzheimer’s Association, 2024).
🔬What's New in Alzheimer’s Research?
Thanks to the support of donors and organizations like the Alzheimer’s Association:
• New drug therapies like lecanemab (Leqembi) and donanemab are emerging, showing promise in slowing cognitive decline in early stages of the disease (NIH, 2023).
• Studies in biomarkers (such as amyloid and tau proteins in the brain) are helping doctors diagnose Alzheimer’s earlier than ever before.
• There is a growing focus on modifiable lifestyle factors—such as exercise, sleep, and social engagement—that may reduce risk or delay onset.
