Work towards not getting it in the first place. Alzheimers is "brain diabetes". You get it from consuming sugars and carbs. It can be easily avoided.

What a ridiculous statement. By your logic, anyone with alzheimer’s got it from eating sugars and carbs and simply didn’t choose to avoid it.

Sugars and carbs also keep you alive. Please keep your mortality neurosis to yourself.
