The sheer number of scientific papers published that relate to treatments and remedies for neurological diseases, as well as articles which appear in the popular press, together with the attention of the media in general to new discoveries in the field, highlight the fact that these illnesses are of great concern to the public as well as to public health departments. The impending escalation in public health costs due to increases in the number of people around the world with these neurodegenerative conditions, particularly Alzheimer’s disease, and the lack of success of Alzheimer’s-related drug trials over the past three decades, is driving further research into potential preventative treatments and lifestyle changes.pp.499-502, 15 chapters© 2019 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.Book Chapter10.1002/9781119356752.oth197811193567522022-03-29
