November is Alzheimer’s Awareness Month. Kelly is dedicating the month to educating patients on identifying signs of Alzheimer’s and effective lifestyle changes to prevent neurological disorders.
Nurse Practitioner, Kelly Engelmann, is Recode Certified for Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia for the Bredesen Protocol through The Institute for Functional Medicine.
An estimated 5.8 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease. The disease impacts people of all ages and the Alzheimer’s Association anticipates a 14% increase in the number of Americans with Alzheimer’s disease by year 2025.
Early detection and prevention are possible! Knowing your Homocysteine level, incorporating our Supplements of the Month, Methyl Protect & MonoPure, and the Cyrex Alzheimer’s Linx empower you to counteract and prevent neurological dysfunction.
