Symptoms and Progression
Early symptoms are usually mild and may include short-term memory loss, difficulty performing familiar tasks, a decline in social or work abilities, and personality changes. As the disease progresses, symptoms gradually intensify, such as loss of orientation, decreased language ability, and impaired judgment.
The Importance of Early Diagnosis
Early diagnosis is crucial for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Research shows that starting treatment early can significantly improve outcomes. Traditional diagnostic methods rely on memory tests and brain scans, usually confirming the diagnosis only after noticeable symptoms appear, which may lead to irreversible damage.
PlasmarkAD®: New Hope for Early Diagnosis
PlasmarkAD® is an innovative blood biomarker testing technology that accurately detects amyloid proteins in the brain, identifying Alzheimer’s risk before symptoms become evident. This technology boasts an accuracy rate of over 96%.
Who Should Get Tested?
It is recommended that the following individuals consider undergoing blood testing for Alzheimer’s disease:
- Individuals aged 50 and above
- Those with a family history of cognitive impairment
- Individuals with high-risk factors for Alzheimer’s (such as stroke, high blood pressure, high blood sugar, high cholesterol)
- People exhibiting signs of cognitive decline
Preventing Alzheimer’s Disease

- Maintain a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, fish, and whole grains
- Engage in regular exercise to keep both body and mind healthy
