Project Description:
The FIT-AD SMART trial tests the impacts of 6 months of exercise on the symptoms and progression of cognitive decline over a 12-month period. The clinical trial is recruiting older adults who are 65 years or older and have mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or probable/possible mild Alzheimer's Disease. Participants will receive 6 months of supervised exercise, undergo cognitive data collection and exercise testing 5 times over a year span, have an MRI brain scan 3 times over a one-year span, and have monthly follow-up discussions on health and wellness. Safety precautions and procedures have been carefully considered to ensure all aspects of the trial are safe.
