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. Sometimes, 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 our 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.

It's a good bet that you, like the rest of us, have forgotten something and then, jokingly,
said, "it must be old-timers disease."
We didn't mean to be hurtful, but our comment can cut deeply if there is a person present
who is trying to cope with the disease.
With more than 18 million known cases of Alzheimer's Disease world-wide, the odds are
that you have had some contact with someone who is close to this horrible degenerating
disease. It may be a victim or a family member of a victim.
Maybe you even suspect that a loved one is exhibiting early stage symptoms of Dementia
and/or Alzheimer's Disease. If you think that may be the case, The Complete Guide to
Treating & Coping with Alzheimer's Disease is just what you need.
Learning what you need to know to understand the disease gives you a definite roadmap
for how to cope, not only with the disease but with caring for your loved one.
Alzheimer's Disease is actually a form of dementia. What comes first - dementia or
Alzheimer's? There are many conditions being investigated as possible causes of
Alzheimer's Disease.
We are still exploring the possible causes of Alzheimer's Disease.
This disease affects vital areas of the patient's brain with serious effects on those parts
which control long-term memory, motion, reasoning and thought.
If you suspect that a friend or family member is suffering from Alzheimer's, early detection
is critical.
No matter what your situation is, you will find the answers you need right here:
Need to identify the symptoms?. . .Chapter 5 breaks it down for you into the three types
of symptoms: early, developing and serious
There are 10 early warning signs and you can learn more about them in Chapter 6
Chapter 7 outlines the different stages of Alzheimer's Disease
Did you know that estrogen plays a role for women in regards to this disease? Chapter 10
explains it for you.
Discover how important early signs can be in Chapter 11.
Do you need to learn better ways to communicate with an Alzheimer's patient? Chapter 26
teaches you how to do that effectively.
How to care for an Alzheimer's patient without sacrificing your own health can be learned in
Chapter 31.
Does your friend or family member exhibit signs of uncertainty when attempting simple,
routine tasks? Are behavioral patterns escalating to borderline violence? Is there a family
history of dementia or Alzheimer's Disease?
Any or all of the above could just be normal signs of aging. However, why take the risk?
Don't wait until it's too late.
