Treating Alzheimer’s disease is a crucial topic for older adults and their families, as the condition can significantly impact daily life. Today, there are multiple treatment and prevention approaches—both from modern medicine and integrative medicine, which emphasizes whole-person care.
This article by Absolute Health explores how to prevent Alzheimer’s disease, treatment options for dementia, and effective care strategies, combining knowledge from modern medicine and integrative health practices.
Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form of dementia, accounting for 60–80% of all dementia cases. It results from abnormal protein buildup in the brain, particularly:
These proteins damage and destroy brain cells, leading to progressive cognitive decline.
