talk about alzheimer's a little bit. i'm curious whether working on this book and you think about alzheimer's in a different way or feel you understood it. or understood its impact in a way you had not thought about before. >> i had not actually thought about alzheimer's before. that is true for many of us. by the time they have alzheimer's you usually don't see them they don't go out. they are invisible unless you know someone who has it or know someone is taking care of someone with alzheimer's. we know a lot about alzheimer's week, science, do not know what causes it. that makes it very, very hard to treat. it has known a lot of features of alzheimer's are what they call biomarkers these toxic proteins that build up in the brain and the hyperactivity and inflammation, where the damage is. it is possible to see all of those things. how that process got started is believed to have happened a way, earlier. it is not clear why it begins. there may not be a cause. there may be multiple causes. there may be multiple on rant

i think there's two recent books, the problems alzheimer's by jason if you want to dig in alzheimer's and how we should be caring for people with alzheimer's. that one is very good. there's a new book out about remembering, how remembering by lisa genova who wrote still alis that is focused more on the science of memory. if so if that's your interest, then one of the books that i read about addiction that i found interesting is called the biology of desire by mark lewis. and that -- that takes the position that addiction is as much of a disorder of learning and memory as it is a disease. >> i actually have to say that i really liked still alice and some of the points about memory and who we are. >> yeah. >> you should definitely look at this. so the fda and this has been incredibly -- geeky science writer community, incredibly controversial. recently approved a drug that was really targeting plaques as one of the issues in alzheimer's and the approval process actually caused 3 scientists on the fda advisory board to quit the board because they were so unhappy about how it turned out a

to dig in alzheimer's and also how weshould be caring for people with alzheimer's . that was very good. there's a new book out about remembering call remembering by lisa genova wrote so alice , is more focused on the science of memory. so that's your interest and then one of the books that i read about addiction hathat i found really interesting is called the biology of desire. by mark lewis. and that's takes the position that addiction is as much a disorder of learning and memory as it is a disease. >> i actually have to say i really like joe allison and some of the points it made about memoryand who we are . i should definitely look at this. so the fda and this has been incredibly, and this is my geeky sciencewriter community, incredibly controversial . recently approved a drug that was really targeting amyloid plaques. as one of the issues and alzheimer's and approval process actually caused three scientists on the fda advisory board to quit the board because they were so unhappy about how it turned out and yet there is ialso a lot of people who hope that this dru

the tablet alzheimer's. i'm curious as to working on the stuff made you think about alzheimer's in a different way i feel that you understand it. or the impacts in the way that you had not thought about before. it. >> i hadn't actually thought about alzheimer's before. i think that is true for many of us because of the time somebody has alzheimer's, that usually don't see them come they don't go out. they're invisible in life. you know somebody you as a door you know somebody's taking care of somebody with alzheimer's. but we know a lot about this but we scientists in the world don't know what causes it. so that makes it very very hard to treat. so what they call biomarkers in alzheimer's, toxic proteins develop the right. in the plaques and how it entangles in the hyper activity and information on the damages. it is possible to see all of those things but how that process got started, is believed to have been of way earlier and unclear why it begins. and there may not be a cause, there may be multiple cause

so going back to alzheimer's for a minute, when you think about alzheimer's and the way it affects memoryhat do you see as the primary role and to understand theis mechanisms? and very shortly i will start we have a i few questions already in the q&a i do want to encourage people if they have memory this is a great moment to add them into q&a. so i'm curious of working on this book made you think about alzheimer's in ats different way or that you understood that or understood the impact in a way you have not pop before? >> i hadn't thought about alzheimer's before. that is true for many of us because by the time someone has alzheimer's usually you don't see them they don't go out they are invisible unless you know someone who has it. we know a lot about alzheimer's but we don't know what causes it. so that makes it very hard to treat so there's a lot of features that are called biomarkers like the toxic proteins that build up in the brain and the hyperactivity and inflammation and the damage but it is possible to see those things but how that process got started is believed to have happen

i don't know if i word describe alzheimer's as an epidemic not just to do better diagnostics but alzheimer's and other dementias that affect memory is not just daily function but it's great to know where you left the car. but who are we? our memories and why this matters so much. >> weur are our memories back to the neurological epicenter because what drew me to this story is i had an episode i had no idea what where i was. if you asked me my name i could not have told you. and yes because about your memories you don't feel like anyone so is not as black-and-white. and those experiments from eleanor maguire in london works with severe amnesia damaging the hippocampus and those who were not. and asking all of them tell me added day at the beach look around so those who didn't haveor memory problems and there are lots of details and those of the damaged hippocampus there is nothing white sand and the blue sky and then what else do you see? that's it. they cannot imagine they cannot create a new scene out of their mind and that's it makes us so human imagining things that don't exist yet and pr

until recently, alzheimer's was diagnosed at autopsy. now, markers have a lot to see what's going on in the brain early on and track the responses. most recently, being less intrusive and expensive to bring the new ability to recruit people into these tracker disease and track the outcomes and intervention. people currently living with alzheimer's, it's important research be conducted as we make priorities to understand the best ways to support those living with in caring for people with alzheimer's. identify infrastructure collaboration and partnerships with healthcare allow us to conduct pragmatic trials short turnaround and identify success for the best way to care for people with alzheimer's. we understand prevention is also an important way and the disease was identified prevented interventions from a study that showed this approach has the ability to decrease this, a precursor mentioned. similarly, intervention with diet, exercise, combinations of them, to find ways to innovate and prevent disease and site behavior change to make s

alzheimer's is the sixth leading cause of death in the u.s. in 2021, estimated 6.2 million americans age 65 and older are living with all summers. it is expected to reach 14.8 million, bearing the department -- development of a medical breakthrough to prevent in the disease. this alzheimer's act signed into law in 2018 creating a public health infrastructure across the country to support prevention treatment and care for alzheimer's patients and related neurodegenerative diseases. i have continued my commitment to this issue by introducing this care act for alzheimer's congress. this reduces medical complications of these patients by creating a new way to medicare. it's not just alzheimer's but other neurodegenerative diseases devastating for the person who suffers with disease in the family, friends, and loved ones. huntington's disease is progressive, brain disorder caused by an inherited gene can appear as early as age two or as late as 80 years old. more than 200,000 americans are at risk of inheriting the gene from a parent with hd. parki

so, that's the first thing to go on alzheimer's, it is the hippocampus. as i mentioned it's a part of your brain that's necessary for the formation of new consciously held memories. this y part is under attack. you can imagine that information that's recently happened won't go into a lasting memory so i can't remember having driven to the store because it happened a few minutes ago and i'm a little fuzzy on how did i get here or if you start repeating yourself a lot because you don't remember you told someone something. if you're repeating yourself a lot and you don't remember, like i don't remember telling young this, again this is a conversation to bring to your primary care physician and treat it like heart health. it doesn't mean if i admit i have a memory problem in going to fall off the cliff tomorrow. it's like heart disease. we have ways we can prevent and prolong the distance by doing the right thing for your brain health, so we know the heart healthy mediterranean diet can reduce your risk of alzheimer's and dementia by half. if i had a pill tha

>> the reason for -- the intention behind it was i've been talking about alzheimer's around the worlddecade now and it's super important work for me personally, i know it is to you as well, trying to help folks understand this disease, be less afraid of it, encourage earlier diagnosis and for care and research. it turns out though every time y spoke about alzheimer's, the conversation eventually shifted to memory and forgetting in general and i found folks over the age of 40, definitely over the age of 50 are all kind of freaked out, stressed out and worried, ashamed of everyday moments of normal forgetting but they don't know it's normal. they think especially after a certain age every time i walk into a room and can't remember why i went in there were can't come up with a name of the actor in that movie i saw last week, i can't remember the name of the movie, i went to store to buy milk and came home with a bunch of groceries and no milk. people think this is a sign of impending dementia especially if they have a loved one with alzheimer's so the intention became -- we have enough t

if you don't have alzheimer's today the, that means you're still okay. like, what are you going to do now. so is, yeah. >> host: yeah. and i will say there was a period of my life a long time ago where i thought sleep was for suckers, and i just thought, you know, i like felt guilty about getting too much sleep which is so silly. >> guest: don't feel that way. i just read something recently on social media about the importance of sleep. it was world sleep day, and a lot of comments were peopl saying i get 9 hours of sleep aa night, and i feel so guilty about tha our culture, like, are you lazy? you know, if you're sleeping, you're lazy. huh-uh. >> host: we only have, like, two or three minutes, but let's spend one or two of them talking a little bit -- people need to understand sleep is not, like, wasted time. again, we are designed, we all -- every living thing, every animal needs sleep. why? well, a big part of the reason is that our brains are consolidating these memories, right? we need that time to keep our brain in functioning order from day-to-day

especially if they have a love zone with alzheimer's. the intention became, we have enough distress about in this world. if i can take this off of peoples plates, you do not have to stress about these things. this is a normal outcome of how human brains are designed. it is a very distinct from forgetting like alzheimer's. i just wanted to understand with an owner's manual this is how your brain works to remember things this is norman white forgets. these are things you can do to protect it and improve it and here's what you really have to worry about in respect alzheimer's. most of what everybody forgets every day you are 25 or 65 is totally normal. >> host: let me do one question and that is you have written five books which went into a lot of detail and explored with these various neurological diseases are including alzheimer so why did you have to switch over? what was necessary about coming over to nonfiction because you are such an artist at it? >> i am going to go back to that. i will never say i will never go back to nonfiction i

it's going to help you learn more stuff tomorrow and prevent alzheimer's, like, okay. but i kind of can let that -- i don't know, unless you tell me why. in the book i said, this is what your brain is doing while you sleep. >> right. >> the help. so you neglect that every time you can give yourself 7 to 9 hours a sleep, i just prevented alzheimer's a little bit. >> absolutely. >> don't worry about the years you haven't slept. if you don't have alzheimer's today, that means that you're still okay, right, you haven't -- all of that is already done. what are you going to do now? yeah. >> yeah. i will say a long time ago where i thought sleep was for suckers and i thought i had to -- i like felt guilty about getting too much sleep and glad -- >> i put something recently in social media about importance of sleep, world sleep day and comments people saying, i get 9 hours oversleep at night and i feel so guilty about that. we as a culture are like that. are you getting enough done. like are you lazy, you neglect, if you're sleeping you're lazy. >> let's spend -- we only have

so the first thing to go in alzheimer's and protect the rate is a hippocampus.ned is just part of the brain this necessary for the formation of new health memories greatest of this part of the brain is under attack you can imagine the information that recently happened will not go into a lasting memory. so can't remember having driven to the store rated that happened a few minutes ago and really of little fuzzy and how i got here. that if you start repeating yourself a lot, because you don't remember rachel's buddy something. you repeating yourself a lot need to remember, like i don't remember telling get this. and again, the conversation to bring to primary care physician. and treat it like heart health people. it doesn't mean like if i admit i have a memory problem, to fall off the cliff and have alzheimer's tomorrow. like heart disease, we have ways to prevent this and have ways that we can prolong the distance and push alzheimer's away off into the distance. we know that heart healthy mediterranean diet can reduce your alzheimer's risk in half. i cure this g

in the difference alzheimer's and normal for getting it. but i think i wanted folks to mostly recognize that there's not a supplement in this world, everybody wants a supplement pretty they want the rabbit out of the hat or the magic showed everybody wants like hadaway stop having this word stuff in the tip of my tongue and how can i always or what can i do that i can remember where he parked my car. there's no supplement at therefore this. our brains are designed in such a way that we are going to forget certain types of things regularly forever. i find that reassuring and not scary. like there is this appendix in the back which is the hitless of what to do to improve your memory day to day. people like that. there's also this idea again that this memory paradox, it's a really big deal, the functioning of almost everything that we do partied and our identity and our ability to remember who i am and who i have been. but it is also not such a big deal because because we forget almost everything eventually, he can't even remember last week or

if you don't have alzheimer's today the, that means you're still okay. like, what are you going to do now. so is, yeah. >> host: yeah. and i will say there was a period of my life a long time ago where i thought sleep was for suckers, and i just thought, you know, i like felt guilty about getting too much sleep which is so silly. >> guest: don't feel that way. i just read something recently on social media about the importance of sleep. it was world sleep day, and a lot of comments were people saying i get 9 hours of sleep a night, and i feel so guilty about that. our culture, like, are you lazy? you know, if you're sleeping, you're lazy. huh-uh. >> host: we only have, like, two or three minutes, but let's spend one or two of them talking a little bit -- people need to understand sleep is not, like, wasted time. again, we are designed, we all -- every living thing, every animal needs sleep. why? well, a big part of the reason is that our brains are consolidating these memories, right? we need that time to keep our brain in functioning order from day-to-d

>> the reason for writing this the intention was talking about alzheimer's around the world that is super important work to help folks understand this disease but it turns out that every time i speak about alzheimer's it eventually shifted to memory and forgetting in general and folks over the age of 40 and definitely 50 arere freaked out stressed out and ashamed of every day moments of normal forgetting that they don't know it's normal they think especially after a certain age after a can i come up with the names of the actors of the movie i went to the grocery store and didn't come home with melt they worry it is with impending dementia especially with the loved one with alzheimer's. so the intention became we haven't have to stress about in this world if i can take this off of people's plates you don't have to stress about these things it's a normal outcome how our brains are designed it's very distinct from alzheimer's i went to understand this is how your brain works these are the things you can do to protect it and this is what you really have to worry about that most of what everyb

>> alzheimer's is a complex disease. there are over two dozen genes we have identified associated with alzheimer's. i will say that a lot of the -- there are a lot of failures in phase one. they are pretty much on par during phase 2 in terms of transitioning from phase number two. phase 3 is where they have hit a real brick wall. this is an exciting time to see the first disease modifying program get approved and again, when you think about what the approval did for cancer, it will allow us to gain further understanding and we do think it will have a positive impact on investment. there are other pathways as i mentioned in my testimony other than the pipeline that we have. >> but research and development is extremely important and again i want to say thank you to you for being here and to those of you participating virtually. you bring a face, a voice to what is otherwise just a disease but it is real. and it impacts real people. and we must commit to continuing research and development to come up with cures. thank you,

this is the same fda that busted a $56,000 alzheimer's treatment from biogen even though there was no up. not because it was a superior treatment for a terrible disease. think about it we have millions dying of covid around the world, multiple vaccines that work rather than giving the green light, the fda approves an alzheimer's drug that probably doesn't work, at least according to ten of the 11 members of the advisory panelment one of them coined it the worst drug al profl in recent u.s. history the fact that it would convince anti-vaxers is pretty silly. this isn't something the government can fix even through -- well, except through coercion you'll hear a lot of people say that businesses needed the fda approval before they could mandate evacuations. of course, that's nonsense i think it gives them cover. there's nothing to stop them from saying, hey, get vaccinated or get fired any business could have done this at any time this should have been the policy six months ago the people running these companies lack the courage they were too afraid of the bac backlash many felt they wer

my question is the fda with much pushback approved the new alzheimer's drug that the efficacy was poor and it was very costly. if they can ram that through quickly, how come we can't get the covid vaccine approved? the government can move forward and demand that the military kids get the vaccine. i don't understand why we can't. with all the statistics and the reporting they can't get this approved until january. andrew: that's an interesting question. you're talking about the bio gender drug approved may be about a month ago as one of the first treatments from alzheimer's disease. that was a controversial approval decision. the independent advisory committee that weighed in on that, several of those experts who sat on this committee and made the decision recommending against the approval ended up resigning over the approval decision -- approval decision. there was a mixed bag of evidence supporting if the drug worked and it will help to benefit alzheimer's patients. that is interesting to keep in mind and they are having people who have raised the idea that the credibility of the agen
