Alzheimer day
On September 21, Alzheimer’s Day, we reflect on the 20 million people worldwide diagnosed with this devastating disease named after Dr. Alois Alzheimer. While occasional forgetfulness is normal, Alzheimer’s symptoms include disorientation, personality changes, and difficulty with everyday tasks. Sleep issues and vivid dreams may also serve as early indicators of the disease, as research links poor sleep quality to amyloid plaque buildup in the brain. Prioritizing sleep and early diagnosis can help manage risks. Learn the signs and stay informed about this growing health concern affecting our aging population.
