September is World Alzheimer’s Month! 🧠
- Team Kazdan at the Walk to End Alzheimer’s
❗️Alzheimer’s disease is the most common type of dementia 🧠
➪More than 50 million people worldwide live with dementia, predominantly Alzheimer’s.
➪By 2050, the number of affected individuals is projected to triple, emphasizing the urgent need for research, funding, support, early detection, diagnosis, and compassionate care.
➪Shockingly, Alzheimer’s claims more lives than breast and prostate cancer combined.
💡 Here are key steps to reduce risks:
➪Exercise regularly
➪Eat a brain-healthy diet (Mediterranean diet, limit alcohol)
➪Take care of your heart (Control blood pressure, cholesterol, & diabetes; Don’t smoke; Get enough sleep)
➪Mentally challenge your brain (puzzles, read, learn new skills)
➪Maintain social connections
⚠️ If you or your loved ones have concerns about memory loss or related symptoms, consult J Kazdan Family Medicine for guidance. Early detection is vital in managing brain-related conditions.
