Phoenix, AZ -- (SBWire) -- 09/09/2020 --In this show, host Maria Lucassen features her special guest, Keith E. Gibson, to talk about the impact daily choices have on longevity and how having a healthy brain and body can keep a person independent.
Growing older comes with many challenges. Having seen how dementia impacted her mom's last years of life, Maria has a deep respect for the research and work related to the treatment of Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. She is super excited to talk to Keith Gibson, the Regional director of Program Services at the Florida division of the Alzheimer's Association.
Estimates vary, but experts suggest that more than 5.5 million Americans, may have dementia caused by Alzheimer's. This disease is devastating for those who live with it – and for their caregivers. Dementia is caused by diseases that damage the brain and affect a person's ability to think, remember and go about their day-to-day life. Dementia is not a normal part of aging. Now science is able to provide us with insights into how to optimize our physical and cognitive health as we age.
Join us to learn about research in the areas of diet and nutrition, exercise, cognitive activity and social engagement and how to incorporate these into a plan for healthy aging. It's never too late to make changes to achieve a healthier lifestyle — or too early to start. We urge listeners to call in to ask specific advice, air their concerns or worries.
