Early Sign of Alzheimer’s You Might Notice in the Shower

One surprisingly subtle clue may be difficulty recognizing familiar scents, including the smell of your regular soap while taking a shower. Although this symptom alone is not enough to diagnose Alzheimer’s disease, it may provide valuable information
when considered alongside other cognitive changes.
