In his latest blog post, AFAR Medical Officer Richard W. Besdine, MD, addresses the widespread misperception that there is nothing individuals can do to control their risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease. Dr. Besdine discusses several actions and habits that can reduce risk of developing Alzheimer’s. He also explores the risk factors that remain out of individuals' control, as well as Alzheimer’s prevalence and treatment in the US today.
