Is it normal aging, Alzheimer’s, or another dementia?
Is it normal aging, Alzheimer’s, or another dementia?
Two of three Americans will experience cognitive impairment by the age of 70. But is it natural age-related forgetfulness, or the early indication of Alzheimer’s Disease or other types of dementia? How worried should older people—or their families and friends—be about their memory loss? And what happens next?
Kenneth Frumkin, PhD, MD, recently retired from a 36-year medical career and facing his own age- and memory-related challenges, provides an empathetic and comprehensive guide to answering those questions. Aging or Alzheimer's? explains what is currently known about the challenges to memory and cognition that come with longevity. Dr. Frumkin describes the progression of Alzheimer’s Disease and other dementias; discusses when to see a doctor and what to expect from the visit; weighs the pros and cons of available tests, treatments, and research; shares personal and passionate tips for coping with decline; and gives the best ways to preserve cognitive health.
There are an average of 15 new Alzheimer’s publications per day. While busy practicing doctors often wait for the consensus reviews of new Alzheimer’s studies that are published about every 10 years, Dr. Frumkin provides evidence-based, up-to-date guidance from the most current memory research. The result is your complete, modern guide to understanding and managing your—or your loved ones’—memory loss or cognitive decline.
