Understanding Alzheimer's Disease: Where are we now and What Does the Future of Dementia Care Look Like?

The Alzheimer's Association estimates there's about 6.9 million Americans living with Alzheimer's disease. And that number— without a more potent intervention— is expected to double every 20 years. On this episode of Aging Forward, Dr. Jonathan Graff-Radford talks how to spot the difference between normal aging memory loss and initial signs of dementia, risk factors for the disease, and his new book out this month, "Mayo Clinic on Alzheimer’s Disease and Other Dementias, Revised and Updated."  Sign up to receive Mayo Clinic Press emails.  Find us online at Mayo Clinic Press for more health and wellness articles, podcasts and books.
