Episode Description

Around 7.4 million Americans are living with a clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer’s dementia — and as the population ages, that number is expected to rise.

On this episode of Aging Forward, Dr. Heather Snyder of the Alzheimer’s Association joins us to discuss the latest advances in Alzheimer’s science, what we know about prevention, and how we can all take steps toward better brain health as we age.
