New episode out!
Today on Speaking of Alzheimer's we are joined by Dr. Kristina Zdanys, Chief of Geriatric Psychiatry and Behavioral Health at the UConn School of Medicine, and Stacey Tucci, a veteran and Executive Director of an assisted living community, for a powerful conversation about the connection between military service and dementia risk.
Stacey reflects on her experience in the Air Force and her family’s personal journey with Alzheimer’s, while Dr. Zdanys offers insight into how brain injury, PTSD, and other service-related factors can affect long-term brain health, and how we can better support veterans and their families.

A groundbreaking Columbia University study has revealed that Alzheimer’s-related risk factors can influence thinking skills decades before symptoms appear. By studying data from over 11,000 participants tracked since adolescence, researchers found that higher CAIDE scores, based on heart health, cholesterol, activity level, and education, were linked to poorer memory and attention in adults as young as 24. This suggests that brain aging may start much earlier than we realize.

They also examined Alzheimer’s blood biomarkers, including amyloid, tau, and inflammation (ATN markers), which are known to contribute to brain decline. Even in younger adults, higher levels of these markers were associated with subtle changes in thinking ability. Interestingly, the APOE ε4 gene, one of the strongest genetic risk factors for Alzheimer’s, didn’t yet affect cognition, hinting that its damage builds up slowly over time.

Researchers emphasize that the path to Alzheimer’s likely begins decades before memory loss becomes noticeable. This means early prevention, through maintaining cardiovascular health, managing cholesterol and blood pressure, and staying mentally active, could be the most powerful tool we have. Protecting your brain, it turns out, starts much earlier than anyone thought.
