July 26, 2016 Jennifer Buchanan

New research putting the spotlight on differences between the sexes when it comes to Alzheimer’s disease.

Among the 5.2 million Americans age 65 or older with Alzheimer’s disease, nearly two-thirds are women reports Dr. Deanna Lites.

This may be because men don’t show the same symptoms so they’re often misdiagnosed.
