Not yet: Some research suggests relative prevention in those who drink red wine, eat cold water fish thrice monthly, drink coffee, consume fruit juices, vegetable juices, meditteranean diet, etc. But, once it occurs. Only modest interventions are available, and no cure found so far.

Not yet: Most recent new drug studies have failed to even establish signicicant benefits to control the symptoms, and our current meds are but modestly helpful. Best approach is to maintain good physical and emotional health, exercise both body and mind, and perhaps a mediterranean diet.

No cure: Alzheimer's disease is a progressive memory loss disease. Starting with short-term memory. We presently do not have a cure for this disease. We have several medications that we treat with ,with some modest results. New research is constantly being done. Hopefully one day we will have a cure for this devastating disease that affects people of all walks of life.
