In July 2023, the prescription drug Leqembi received FDA approval for use in patients with amyloid plaques as a treatment for the symptoms of Alzheimer's Disease, showing some promise in delaying progression of dementia. No cure or reversal of age-associated dementia has yet been found. After decades of research, no specific superfood, no video game, no medical device nor procedure has been scientifically validated by reproducible results to reverse, delay, or prevent cognitive decline or dementia.

In that case, what do we do?

Research has revealed a number of lifestyle factors that can delay by years

the onset or the progression of illness. Every year gained blesses us with more time to continue to enjoy one another, to be alert and learn new activities, and to savor life. These key factors include:

Physical exercise, particularly exercise that involves active attention to how we move.

Stress reduction

Social interaction

Good nutrition and drinking enough water

Identifying strengths and creating purpose,
adding meaning to our days.
