Women who exercise regularly from midlife onward have a 90% lower risk of Alzheimer's and delay onset by 11 years if they do develop it. Ordinary activities like housework, gardening, and dog walking provide this protection. Simple exercise could replace costly amyloid drugs and deliver better results.
Women who exercise regularly, routinely, kind of from midlife on, have a 90% reduction in Alzheimer's. Whoa. And compared to women who don't exercise routinely. And in the women who are going to get Alzheimer's, it's 11 years later than if they didn't exercise. So, I mean, think about that. If we had a drug that had a 90% reduction in Alzheimer's, how much would we pay for that? People would go nuts. You and I would be, Every day. We wouldn't have $40 billion wasted on amyloid drugs. But it's available by housework, by gardening, by getting a dog and walking it twice a day. Okay, that's interesting.
