Exploring Alzheimer's Prevention with Dr. Craig Curtis
In this episode of the Open Forum in The Villages, Florida, host Mike Roth is joined by Dr. Craig Curtis to discuss Alzheimer's disease and ongoing research. Dr. Curtis highlights the development and impact of FDA-approved drugs Licanumab and Denanumab, which aim to slow Alzheimer's progression by removing amyloid protein from the brain. They discuss preventative studies, including the U.S. Government's Ahead study, and examine factors like nutrition, exercise, and overall health that may influence the onset of Alzheimer's. The episode concludes with information on how listeners can participate in clinical trials and support Alzheimer's research.
