Program Description

Event Details

An estimated 7 million older adults have Alzheimer's disease in the United States, and this number is expected to double by 2060. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, nearly 45% of all dementia cases may be prevented or delayed by making healthy lifestyle changes. In this talk, we will discuss some fundamental concepts of Chinese medicine - a natural and holistic approach to healing - and how this medical tradition addresses reducing the risk of dementia.
