June is Alzheimer's and Brain Awareness Month! Did you know that taking care of your heart health can also benefit your brain? Research shows a strong link between cardiovascular disease and an increased risk of Alzheimer's and vascular dementia. There are proactive steps you can take to prioritize your heart health and help safeguard your cognitive function. Regular exercise, a balanced diet, and consistent check-ins with your primary care physician can make a big difference. We invite you to learn more about supporting healthy brain function from the Alzheimer’s Association: https://lnkd.in/d7J9YJyW #AlzheimersAndBrainAwarenessMonth #Alzheimers #Wellness #BrainHealth #HeartHealth #Medicare #MedicareAdvantage

Did you know that Alzheimer’s disease can develop over years without being noted? It advances through stages. In the pre-clinical stage, you might not have any troubles with memory loss or similar. In the meantime, however, pathological changes are already occurring in the brain. Dementia develops when everyday tasks like driving or cooking become a struggle. But here’s the good news: Spotting Alzheimer’s early and tweaking lifestyle habits can slow mild cognitive decline and might even slow its progression for years! 💡If you’re looking for ways to help your patients and promote brain health, check out our latest blog post about Alzheimer’s disease.

Worldwide, over 55 million people have dementia. With the shift towards an older aged population, this number is estimated to almost double every 20 years, reaching 139 million in 2050. Alzheimer’s disease is the most common cause of dementia, accounting for 60-70% of dementia cases.* On this World Alzheimer’s Day, let’s unite to raise awareness and support for those affected. Together, we can make a difference by promoting early diagnosis, supporting caregivers, and advancing brain health through innovative neuroscience. #WorldAlzheimersDay #Dementia #DiseaseAwareness *(Sources: Alzheimer’s Disease International, WHO)
