- Early Alzheimer’s patients pursuing lecanemab show low adherence to brain health adviceon August 9, 2026 at 11:00 am
Researchers at the Mass General Brigham Neuroscience Institute found that most patients with early Alzheimer’s disease are not optimally adhering to recommendations for improving their brain health, including exercising, getting adequate sleep, preventing hypertension and eating a heart-healthy diet. The results, published in The Journal of Prevention of Alzheimer’s Disease, show that fewer than 3% of the studied patients followed all 15 brain health recommendations the researchers examined. Both patients with early Alzheimer’s disease who pursued treatment with lecanemab, an anti-amyloid antibody medication for Alzheimer’s disease, and patients who did not pursue anti-amyloid therapy had poor adherence to brain health recommendations, with no significant difference between the groups.
