June marks Alzheimerโs & Brain Awareness Month, a crucial time to raise awareness about Alzheimerโs disease and other brain disorders. This month emphasizes early diagnosis, support for affected families, and the importance of funding research to improve care and find solutions.

- Women, especially over 85, are more likely to develop Alzheimerโs than men.
- Neurological diseases like stroke, migraine, and Alzheimerโs cause significant global disability and mortality.
