Alzheimer’s doesn’t just affect individuals—it impacts families, communities, and healthcare systems. Raising awareness can lead to earlier diagnosis, better care, and increased research funding.
Did you know?
Over 55 million people worldwide live with dementia.
Alzheimer’s is the most common form, accounting for 60–70% of cases.
There is currently no cure—but research and support make a difference every day.
Who it affects:
– Most commonly affects people 65 and older, but early-onset Alzheimer’s can begin in people as young as 40 or 50.
– It is not a normal part of aging, although age is the biggest risk factor.
Risk Factors:
– Age
– Family history/genetics (e.g., APOE-e4 gene)
– Heart health (high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity)
– Lifestyle factors (diet, exercise, sleep)
Every action counts. Every voice matters. Let’s stand up for brain health and a future without Alzheimer’s.
