What Is Alzheimer’s Disease?
Alzheimer’s disease is a type of dementia, which is a general term for a group of diseases that cause a decline in brain function. The progressive disease affects parts of the brain that control thought, memory, and language. It’s estimated that nearly 7 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s, with one in 10 people older than 65 and nearly a third of people older than 85 having the condition.
Known Alzheimer’s risk factors include:
- Age
- Family history
- Previous brain injury
- Certain cardiovascular health conditions
- Smoking
- Physical inactivity
Researchers have discovered that Alzheimer’s disease is caused by an abnormal build-up of amyloid and tau proteins in the brain, which blocks the communication between nerve cells, preventing them from carrying out their processes.
Alzheimer’s disease signs and symptoms vary based on how far the condition has progressed. Affected individuals might experience:
- Trouble finding the right words to express their thoughts
- Forgetting where they left items
- Having trouble making plans or organizing activities
- Difficulty problem-solving
- Requiring additional time to complete routine tasks
- Having short-term memory loss and being confused about the time and date or their location
- Having trouble recognizing familiar faces
- Repeating the same stories or questions
- Requiring assistance with self-care activities
- Experiencing personality changes, including being agitated or acting out
- Showing signs of depression or anxiety
- Experiencing urinary incontinence
- Having trouble sleeping
- Beginning to wander
- Total memory loss
- No recollection of surroundings
- Needing help with all everyday activities, such as eating, walking, and sitting up
- Inability to communicate
Currently, there’s no cure for Alzheimer’s disease but treatments do exist. Alzheimer’s treatments include medications approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that slow the progression of Alzheimer’s symptoms, helping to make them more manageable.
