Become a partner to prevent Alzheimer’s

To become a partner to help prevent Alzheimer’s and help enrol your people in becoming ‘citizen scientists’  by completing the free online COGNITIVE FUNCTION TEST to take part in this global prevention campaign, email cognitionsupport@foodforthebrain.org giving details about your organisation or patient base.

You will then be assigned a ’tag’ such as foodforthebrain.org/examplepartner. This will enable you to track the progress of your group as they reduce their dementia Risk Index and Cognitive Function Test score – see example below:

Here are  examples of messages to then share with your people:

Less than 1% of Alzheimer’s is caused by genes. It is a preventable, but not reversible, disease. From middle age it is possible to predict who is heading for dementia and, most importantly, what simple changes to diet and lifestyle prevent that from happening.

Prof David Smith: Dementia Prevention by Disease-Modification through Nutrition:

An important approach to dementia prevention is to identify modifiable risk factors and to administer treatments that reduce the exposure to the risk factor. One such risk factor is raised plasma total homocysteine (tHcy), which is considered to be one of the most significant modifiable risk factors for incident AD.
