By 2050, more than 360,000 Quebecers could be living with a neurocognitive disorder such as Alzheimer’s, more than double the number today. Is it possible to slow this progression or even prevent the disease? Listen to Dr. Sylvia Villeneuve share her expertise on risk factors and the importance of early detection.

Basically, the majority of people who develop Alzheimer’s disease will be diagnosed after the age of 75, after the age of 65… I’m sorry, but if we’re beginning to realize this, it’s because the disease in the brain probably starts at least 20 years earlier.
