Abstract

This project aims to develop and evaluate an open-source therapeutic video as a noninvasive intervention for individuals at risk of or diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. The video integrates heart-coherent breathing exercises, 40 Hz gamma frequency stimulation, and imagery—three nonpharmacological techniques associated with cognitive engagement and amyloid-beta plaque reduction. Currently in the data collection and development phase, the project is refining the video through multiple iterations based on user feedback until a final version meets all criteria.
