Alzheimer’s disease Facts
Alzheimer’s is the 6th leading cause of death in the world. Of the top 10 causes of death, it’s the only one without a cure, treatment or prevention. It currently affects more than 6 million Americans (over 100,000 in Minnesota alone) and by 2050, an estimated 13 million Americans will be living with the disease. If we do not go after this disease, it will most certainly be coming after us.
