“Alzheimer’s is a very common problem with an estimated five million Americans currently affected, a number that’s expected to triple in the next 30-40 years,” said Lippa. “The good news is that this is a very exciting time in terms of research. I believe in a few years we’ll have some really meaningful ways of preventing or stabilizing the disease.”
During the interview, Dr. Lippa offers tips to keep your mind healthy, and discusses whether supplements and over-the-counter “memory boosters” are effective. She also provides helpful information for caregivers.
