Alzheimer's disease is the most common form of dementia and affects many people in the United States. There is no cure or way to stop or slow its progression at this time; however, stem cell therapy has been shown to delay symptoms of cognitive decline, relieve anxiety and depression, improve quality of life and overall wellbeing in patients with Alzheimer's disease. In this presentation, Dr. David Greene R3 Stem Cell talks about stem cell therapy and how could it help in Alzheimer's disease.

2. WHAT IS ALZHEIMER’S
DISEASE?
Alzheimer’s disease is a neurological
condition in which the death of brain
cells causes memory loss and
cognitive decline.
It is a condition that affects the brain.
The symptoms are mild at first and
become more severe over time.

3. • Alzheimer’s disease is a chronic (long-term),
ongoing condition. It is not a typical sign of aging.
• Alzheimer’s and dementia aren’t the same thing.
Alzheimer’s disease is a type of dementia.
• Its symptoms come on gradually, and the effects
on the brain are degenerative, meaning they cause
slow decline.
• There’s no cure for Alzheimer’s yet, but treatment
can help slow the progression of the disease and
may improve quality of life.
Here are some key details about this
condition:
Alzheimer’s Facts

4. Symptoms Of
Alzheimer’s Disease
• Memory loss affecting daily activities
• Personality or behavior changes
• Problems with speaking, reading, or writing
• Problems with spatial awareness
• Problems with recognition

5. • Mild Alzheimer’s disease
• Moderate Alzheimer’s disease
• Severe Alzheimer’s disease

6. CAUSES AND
RISK FACTORS
Experts haven’t determined a
single cause of Alzheimer’s
disease, but they have identified
certain risk factors, including:
• Genetics
• Age
• Family history

7. Stem Cell Therapy
For Alzheimer’s
Adult stem cells could prevent the
development of Alzheimer’s according
to some studies. These stem cells are
helping scientists understand what
leads to the degeneration and the
research could help scientists
understand the disease better and
come up with a cure.

8. Preventing Alzheimer’s
• Keep your brain active
• Try to quit smoking
• Eat well
• Exercise regularly
• Maintain an active social life
