Amsterdam, May 11, 2021 - It is projected that up to 152 million people worldwide will be living with Alzheimer s disease (AD) by 2050.

A growing body of evidence finds that targeting lifestyle and vascular risk factors have a beneficial effect on overall cognitive performance. A new review in the
Journal of Alzheimer s Disease, published by IOS Press, examines research that finds spiritual fitness, a new concept in medicine that centers on psychological and spiritual wellbeing, and Kirtan Kriya, a simple 12-minute meditative practice, may reduce multiple risk factors for AD.
