What is Alzheimer's Disease?
Alzheimer's disease is a silent killer.
It slowly and steadily causes the brain to deteriorate. Initially, a person with AD (Alzheimer's disease)
could experience intermittent memory lapses with other symptoms like lack of proper judgment, an
inability to express themselves properly, confusing views and, sometimes, changes in their personality.
Alzheimer's disease is very common in the twenty-first century, with more than eighteen million affected
people all over the world. Alzheimer's disease destroys neurons and affects neurotransmitters of your
nervous system. This harms normal functioning of the brain. Still, the exact cause for
Alzheimer's disease is unknown and there is no cure for it at this writing.
It sounds depressing, and it is, but remember that the progress of this disease differs from person to
person.
Common Symptoms of Alzheimer's Disease
These are high blood pressure, high homocysteine levels, family history of the disease,
nervous disorders, difficulty in doing normal routine work, repetitive attitudes and losing interest in
activities which were previously enjoyed.
Females get it more than men do.
They can take certain medications and supplements like Vitamin E capsules to slow down the progress of
the disease.
So far, not one single item can be taken or used which has shown a huge effect on AD (Alzheimer's
Disease.) However, there have been many tests that show a variety of things you can do to help offset
the disease in different degrees.
Some changes in lifestyle and behavior patterns like:
- keeping a relaxed attitude
- listening to soothing music
- regular massage sessions
- spending time with pets like cats and dogs
- going for walks with friends or care-givers
- family counseling, and even
- bright light therapy.
Getting the disease diagnosed early can improve the treatment options.
What Causes Alzheimer's Disease?
The brain begins to deteriorate long before they experience any single symptom of Alzheimer's disease.
There are a number of theories for the cause of Alzheimer's disease. But, it is most likely the cumulative
effect of various factors. Different patients of Alzheimer's disease exhibit different symptoms of the
disease; clinical, pathological, psychological, and effects on their nervous systems.
Factors thought to be responsible for the occurrence of Alzheimer's disease include:
�� Genes: If you have a family history of Alzheimer's disease, there is a high chance of you acquiring it at
some time. Your chances increase with the number of affected members in your family. Even if only
one of your parents has Alzheimer's disease, your chances may be doubled or tripled for getting it over
people who do not have it in their family history.
�� Down's syndrome: If you have Down's syndrome or Trisomy 21, your chances for the occurrence of
Alzheimer’s disease increase. You might develop certain pathological symptoms, but may not show any
clinical symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease.
�� Mutation chromosomes: The chromosomes 1, 10, 12, 14, 21 could cause Alzheimer’s disease.
ometimes, late onset of the disease could be due to APOE gene variants on Chromosome 19.
�� Age: Old age is synonymous with memory loss and other marked changes in behavioral and functional
patterns. So, it is difficult to identify Alzheimer’s disease symptoms in old age. But, general failing health
in old age is believed to contribute to the onset of Alzheimer’s disease.
�� Stress: Stress puts pressure on your nervous system, leading to development of free radicals. Such
stress, specifically in old age, is a major cause for Alzheimer’s disease.
Injuries: Severe head injuries and trauma damage can disrupt normal blood flow to brain.
There, sensitive brain nerves are at immense risk because of the depleted blood flow and the result may
be various fibrous tangles. Deposits of beta amyloid protein occur during head injuries, which do not
allow easy blood flow. There are established links of such deposits with dementia symptoms. Hence, this
could be an important cause for Alzheimer's disease. Other diseases like high blood pressure and blood
sugar levels, stroke, atherosclerotic disease and diabetes also dislocate the blood supply to the brain,
and can cause late onset of Alzheimer's disease.
�� Female gender: As mentioned before, the incidence of Alzheimer's is higher in females. One possible
reason for this could be the loss of Estrogen hormones after menopause. Hormonal imbalances are
common during menopause and contribute towards the occurrence of Alzheimer's disease in females.
�� Education: low levels of brain activity such as with people that become “couch potatoes” in front of
their TV etc, may reduce their chances of avoiding mental deterioration and, possibly, Alzheimer's disease.
�� Poverty: Poverty is another important cause of Alzheimer's disease, as you are unable to understand,
diagnose, or take preventive steps to protect yourself against disease because of the lack of money,
regular medical consultations and not even being aware of the risk of the disease and any protective
measures that you might take. Vitamins are expensive and people on low incomes often do not get
enough proper foods to maintain their health into old age.
Higher education may improve the thinking power of the brain and increase the functioning of your brain.
Keeping your brain active may reduce the effects or delay the onset of Alzheimer's disease.
An active brain also prevents the onset of dementia. Another effect of higher education may be to
increase your standard of living and make you more aware of various diseases, their symptoms and
causes, as a well-educated person is more likely to read news and health journals and be exposed to
what can happen to them in old age.
There are conflicting reports about two other possible causes of Alzheimer's disease. One is the presence
of high aluminum levels in the environment and the other is smoking.
Some research findings were said to indicate that nicotine in the brain, due to smoking, might
protect you against Alzheimer's disease but this has been proven false. Cigarettes are not good for you.
Earlier studies on animals and humans were reported to indicate that nicotine exposure inhibits the
formation of amyloid plaque, a key feature of Alzheimer's disease.
However, a new study shows that chronic nicotine use may worsen the effects of a brain protein called
tau, which is responsible for the fibrous tangles that are a hallmark of the disease.
So, any good effect in smoking would be more than canceled out, according to the latest research.
