Alzheimer's Prevention: A Glimpse of the Future - online course

The brain starts aging in your early 30s. Scientists call this process "neuronal degeneration". However, it's proven that even if you're 65+, you can still reverse this neuronal degeneration with the right knowledge and tools. Whether for yourself or for your clients or students, this program will advance your understanding of how to protect your mind and enjoy optimal brain function throughout life.

As you probably know, many things can hasten the development of cognitive decline and in this course you’ll learn about all of them and what you can do about it from our incredible lineup of world-renowned speakers. In particular, we discuss how women can prevent Alzheimer’s disease because women are at much higher risk than men.

This is a premier course for the Alzheimer’s community. A Glimpse of the Future features cutting-edge and timely topics on all aspects regarding Alzheimer’s prevention, in particular evidence-based lifestyle medicine. Ten world-renowned medical professionals, researchers, and caregivers share their current work on the varied treatment and prevention modalities of Alzheimer’s and other dementias.

We are offering this course to address the unmet needs of all those at risk for Alzheimer’s, promoting multidisciplinary care and emphasizing the fact that prevention is still the best option.

I look forward to incorporating what I learned in the direct care I provide to patients and families. Excellent presentation of current knowledge and scientific study results. - A.A.
