How can Alzheimer's disease, an incurable disease, be prevented?

In 1906, Dr. Arois Alzheimer of Germany described a woman in her 50s suffering from a "abnormal cerebral cortical disease" that caused her to lose memory, lose her way, develop hallucinations, and die at the age of 55.
autopsy showed that the woman's brain cortical layer was thinner than normal, had deposited plaques, and found nerve fibers entangled.
, the disease was named after Dr. Alezheimer, or Alzheimer's disease, as we often call it.
