Be informed when thinking about alternatives for dealing with Alzheimer’s disease
|
Remedies, supplements and “medical foods” are often referred to as alternative treatments for Alzheimer’s disease. They aren’t regulated and do not adhere to the same standards as FDA-approved treatments. If you’re considering taking an alternative treatment, talk to your physician. It’s important to be aware of any risks so you can make an informed decision.
