Navigating the emotional rollercoaster of a loved one's Alzheimer's diagnosis can be incredibly challenging. That's why we brought Carolyn Aird, a health educator with experience in research at NYU, onto The Relevant Roundtable to share her invaluable insights and personal experiences. From understanding the risks associated with diseases like colon cancer to the importance of research in moving the goalpost in terms of insurance coverage, Carolyn sheds light on how research can provide access to tests and results that may not be available to individuals without a primary care doctor - particularly for people of color who are disproportionately affected by Alzheimer's disease.

When Carolyn's mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, she found herself in the difficult position of both caregiver and researcher. In this episode, Carolyn provides practical advice for listeners on managing the mental stress of caregiving and emphasizes the importance of understanding and love in facing the challenges of caring for someone with Alzheimer's.

We also discuss the importance of participating in Alzheimer's research and the benefits of early detection and management of the disease through medications and a good diet. Carolyn provides information on how you can get involved in research, as well as some resources for further learning, including her website thousandpoundsofkale.com. By increasing awareness and understanding of this devastating disease, we can take steps towards better care and prevention for ourselves and our loved ones.
