What matters is you: Fear of any condition isn't really useful unless you make use of your concern to do something about it. While there are no proven preventive therapies, good healthy nutrition & regular physical activity appear to be your best bets at improving your odds. And of course, controlling/optimizing any chronic conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure & cholesterol. Check out www.alz.org for info
