Neuroradiologist Dr. Bradley Jabour joins The Doctors and Glenn to discuss the signs of poor brain health.

With a family history of Alzheimer’s disease and recent memory issues, Glenn has come to The Doctors in hopes of finding out if he is suffering from the disease as well.

Join http//www.WatchMojo.com for a Very Special Episode of Top 5 Facts, as we take a look at a tragic, terminal disease: Alzheimer's.

The finding of a new Alzheimer’s treatment has spurred some hope that a cure to the devastating disease may be on the horizon.

Diet and exercise can reduce toxic protein buildup of Alzheimer’s, a study finds.

Brain games, puzzles, reading and crafts. Do activities that keep your mind active help ward off symptoms of Alzheimer's disease? In a recent study researchers found those who stayed mentally active in midlife had lower levels of amyloid deposits in their brains than those who didn't stay mentally active. Amyloid deposits are a hallmark sign of Alzheimer's disease. The researchers say staying mentally active doesn't stop the disease, but it may delay symptoms.

Alzheimer’s disease relentlessly targets large-scale brain networks that support the formation of new memories. However, it remains a mystery as to why the disease selectively targets memory-related brain networks and how this relates to misfolded proteins seen by pathologists at autopsy. In an effort to bridge the divide between the targeted memory systems and the misfolded proteins and dying cells underneath, Mayo Clinic researchers have turned to the field of complex systems.

Dr. John Ratey discusses the promising research that suggests that physical exercise can forestall, and perhaps even prevent, Alzheimer's disease.

'Father of neuroscience' Dr. Michael Merzenich says people may be able to delay and even reverse the onset of Alzheimer's disease with targeted brain exercises.

Every now and then we forget the name of our favorite song, or what our best friend's phone number is. But when are these 'brain farts' a sign of something serious? Should you be worried?

More than 5 million Americans are living with Alzheimer's disease. There is no cure, however, early and accurate diagnosis of this progressive form of dementia allows patients and families to prepare for the future. Vivien Williams has more in this Mayo Clinic Minute.
