The future of Alzheimer`s early detection and early intervention starts here.
The Tragic Reality of Alzheimer's Disease
It’s a story that’s all too familiar. A spouse, a parent, a grandparent – lost to the devastating effects of Alzheimer’s disease. The memories that once made them who they were slowly fading away, leaving nothing but a shell of the person they once were. It’s a disease that not only robs its victims of their memories and abilities but also takes a tremendous toll on their families, caregivers, and the healthcare system as a whole.
The Problem
For patients, the cost of ineffective drugs can be significant. Not only do they have to endure the pain and discomfort of their condition, but they may also have to take time off work or miss out on important events due to their symptoms. On top of that, they may have to pay for additional medical care, such as follow-up appointments, imaging tests, or referrals to specialists. The financial burden can be overwhelming, especially for those who are already struggling to make ends meet.
Alzheimer’s disease affects more than just memory loss. It robs individuals of their independence, their ability to communicate, and their sense of self. Families watch as their loved ones slowly slip away, feeling helpless and heartbroken as they are unable to do anything to stop the disease’s progression. The emotional toll is immeasurable, and the impact on the lives of both patients and caregivers can be devastating.
The Emotional Impact
The Financial Cost
The financial cost of Alzheimer’s disease is staggering. According to the Alzheimer’s Association, the disease costs the United States an estimated $305 billion per year, and that number is projected to reach $1.1 trillion by 2050. The cost of caring for individuals with Alzheimer’s disease is high, and families often bear the brunt of those expenses. The burden of paying for care can lead to financial stress, hardship, and even bankruptcy.
Not only does Alzheimer’s disease cost families and caregivers financially, but it also puts a significant strain on healthcare resources. As the baby boomer generation ages, the number of people living with Alzheimer’s disease is expected to skyrocket. The healthcare system is already struggling to keep up with the demand for Alzheimer’s care, and that problem is only going to get worse.
The Wasted Resources
One in three seniors dies with Alzheimer's or another dementia.
In 2022, Alzheimer's disease will cost the United States $321 billion. This number is projected to rise to nearly $1 trillion in 2050.
More than 6 million Americans are living with the disease.

Early Detection
Early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease is crucial as it allows for earlier intervention and may improve outcomes.
Early Intervention
Research has shown that factors such as diet, exercise, and social engagement may help reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease. For example, the Mediterranean diet, which is rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, has been associated with a lower risk of Alzheimer's disease.

About Alzheimer`s
Alzheimer’s disease, the most common form of dementia, is a progressive neurological illness that impairs thinking and the independence of millions of people worldwide. Today, more than 6 million Americans1 and more than 44 million people worldwide live with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias — and these numbers are growing rapidly.
Alzheimer’s disease is usually diagnosed in people 65 years and older, but it starts earlier, with subtle neurological changes occurring years or even decades before symptoms appear. Many people are experiencing the early, often unrecognized signs of mild cognitive impairment.
