    Curry is anti-inflammatory. There are studies on how the Mediterranean diet helps protect against brain inflammation. They are usually about depression, not Alzheimer's, and they typically claim that consumption of olive oil and fresh fruits and veggies are big factors. Those might provide clues for you to start your search. When my dad had Alzheimer's, I think they also gave him a children's aspirin (or possibly some other otc med) daily to help reduce his issues and help keep him more manageable. That might be another thing you could look up. I recall seeing a remark on HN about Bill Gates, Alzheimer's and walking, though I can't find a citation. I recall someone saying something like "It would be great to be able to tell my mom to walk more because Bill Gates said so." Walking is something I know to be hugely beneficial to various things. I would absolutely look for research that connects walking and protection against dementia if it were me. Best.

      Thank you, appreciate that a lot! My mom already eats pretty healthy and exercises regularly, but I'll try to point her to specific foods. I am somewhat surprised with all the research about that there's no prescription drugs or similar items that may be beneficial.

        "Life is chemistry" "Let your food be your medicine" I started with anti-inflammatory medication for my condition and inferred that an anti-inflammatory diet might help me get off the drugs. It did. I think an anti-inflammatory diet is a superior solution Best.
