Join Kosta and his guest: Melanie Hendricks, Plateau Regional Director for Alzheimer’s Tennessee. In This Episode: Alzheimer's is the 6th leading cause of death in the United States. Between 1999 and 2014 Alzheimer's deaths in Tennessee more than doubled. Collectively, we’ll do almost anything to avoid talking about aging, death and what all of this will mean for ourselves and our family. Knowing what you know, what one conversation you wish every family would have when it comes to aging, care and Alzhimer’s? To what extent is memory loss a normal part of aging? How can we tell the difference between forgetfulness and early signs of Alzheimer’s? There’s a lot of talk recently about food dyes, pesticides, and external forces in our food supply that are causing illness, chronic disease and worse. When it comes to Alzheimer's prevention and our own lifestyle choices, what can we improve on? Can choices like diet, exercise, or even community involvement significantly reduce the risk or possibly delay the onset of Alzheimer's?Find out more about Alzheimer’s Tennessee:https://www.alztennessee.org/Get in Touch with Melanie Hendricks and the Cumberland Plateau Office:South Lowe Avenue, Suite ICookeville, TN 38501931 526-8011  [email protected] Together with Kosta Yepifantsev is a product of Morgan Franklin Media and recorded in Cookeville, TN.This episode of Better Together with Kosta Yepifantsev is made possible by our partners at Miss Sallie's Market.Find out more about Miss Sallie's Market:https://www.misssallies.com
