What is the value in catching early signs of dementia given that we have no useful treatments for it?

You might want to read Drop Acid by Perlmutter, stuff about sugar by Robert Lustig and maybe Fiber Fueled by Bulsiewicz. They give pointers to why Alzheimer might happen in the first place and how to avoid it. Those are life-long advices.
There are no cures; but there are treatments that can delay onset, slow progression, and improve quality of life to varying extents depending on which disease.
Getting prepared for what is to come for everyone involved?
