- 01Blood tests can identify Alzheimer’s markers in healthy people in their 50s and 60s.
- 02Elevated amyloid-beta and tau proteins predict cognitive decline over five years.
- 034% to 15% of participants showed high protein levels indicating early brain changes.
- 04Higher protein levels correlated with reduced processing speed, executive function, and verbal memory.
- 05The test offers a cheaper, less invasive alternative to brain scans or spinal fluid analysis.
- 06Early detection may allow preventive treatments and lifestyle adjustments to delay dementia.
