About Alzheimer’s Disease (AD)

Alzheimer's disease is a condition in which nerve cells in the brain drop out, causing a gradual decline in memory and cognitive function.

Detecting and Diagnoses

AD can only be confirmed with 100% certainty during an autopsy. However, physicians who are familiar with AD can usually diagnose it with close to 90% accuracy through a process of elimination.

Living and Coping with AD

Living with AD is demanding and tiring. The simple tasks of daily living take longer. You find it difficult to do certain things you like to do or are used to doing yourself. You feel confused.

Understanding AD Risk Factors

Alzheimer’s Disease is the most common type of dementia, affecting nearly 5.8 million people in the United States over the age of 65.

One in six women, and one in Ten men who live to be at least fifty-five will develop AD in their remaining lifetimes.

Higher risk for women as they tend to live longer than men.
