Alzheimer's is the fastest growing disease in the developed world. By age sixty-five, 1 in 8 Americans is afflicted. By age eighty-five, half the population is afflicted. Beyond normal forgetfulness or occasional fuzzy thinking, Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive deterioration of the brain resulting in debilitating memory loss, confusion and dementia.

Though there is no current cure, researchers are learning more about Alzheimer’s every day, including ways to treat the disease or delay its onset as well as identifying risk factors that play a role in the likelihood of developing the disease. Your age, family history, genetics and general health may all offer clues to whether or not you are at risk personally.

By answering a few questions about your medical history, your family’s medical history, and your lifestyle, this assessment will help you identify your personal risk factors for developing Alzheimer’s disease and other cognitive impairments.   At the end of the questionnaire, you will see a tailored report including your risks and prevention strategy. 

We hope you find this tool helpful and empowering.
