Brookmeyer and colleagues (2007) suggested that promoting mental and physical exercise could result in a 10% decrease in the prevalence of Alzheimer's disease. Exercise has been shown to have positive effects on brain health, such as increasing blood flow and promoting the growth of new brain cells. Additionally, engaging in mentally stimulating activities can also help to maintain cognitive function and possibly delay or prevent the onset of Alzheimer's disease. While promoting cognitive-behavioural therapy and increasing one's social network may have benefits for mental health, they have not been specifically linked to a decrease in Alzheimer's disease prevalence. New developments in pharmacotherapy may help to treat symptoms of the disease, but have not been shown to prevent or decrease its prevalence.
