Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB) affects over 1 million people in the United States. It is caused by the buildup of abnormal protein clusters, known as “Lewy Bodies,” within the brain and is characterized by fluctuations in cognitive ability, particularly alertness and attention. Many dementia with Lewy Bodies patients also have visual hallucinations and REM sleep behavior disorder.
