Abstract

Alzheimer's disease (AD) has grown to be a serious issue for human health. It has overtaken cancer as the world's fifth leading cause of death. People have invested a lot of time, effort, and money in the process of Alzheimer's disease treatment, but there hasn't been much progress in pharmaceutical treatment for AD over the years. People can start with non-pharmaceutical therapies in addition to drugs. This paper discusses several effective non-pharmaceutical therapies for Alzheimer's disease. Sixteen articles were analyzed and used to analyze different treatments for Alzheimer's disease. The research examines nine non-pharmaceutical treatments, which included the removal of Aβ burden, stimulation of the hippocampus or entorhinal cortex, cognitive therapy, exercise, mental stimulation, reminiscence therapy, diet therapy, caregivers, and life care. A large amount of data is analyzed, and the results, benefits, and disadvantages of these treatments are compared. This research proves that non-pharmaceutical therapies are feasible ways to treat Alzheimer's disease and play a very important role in the treatment process.
