Why are 70% of new Alzheimer's sufferers women???

Almost 70% of new Alzheimer’s sufferers will be women. What makes this fact even more alarming is that there is little understanding of why this is the case,
and there are no studies currently being undertaken to explore the discrepancy. We at the Women’s Brain Health Initiative intend to change that.

Today, CBC broadcast an interview which is important to all women - regardless of their ages.

Although women with the disease outnumber men, more research has been done on men with Alzheimer's than with women. 

The Women's Brain Health Initiative's objective is to change this.
