Southern Remedy

Southern Remedy Relatively Speaking | Aging, Dementia, & Alzheimer Disease

Host(s): Dr. Susan Buttross, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and Abram Nanney

Guest(s): Jenna Harris, Alzheimer’s Association


Topic: As people grow older, changes occur in all parts of our bodies, and that includes the brain. Those brain changes may cause us to notice that remembering information isn’t as easy as it used to be and recalling names or numbers may not happen as quickly. Maybe these signs of mild forgetfulness are just aging, but when does it become more troublesome? Is it aging, a health issue, dementia or Alzheimer’s? We’ll be talking about that today.
