🧠 What Is Alzheimer’s Disease?

Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form of dementia, a progressive brain disorder that slowly destroys memory, thinking skills, and the ability to carry out simple tasks.

It begins with mild memory loss and can lead to severe cognitive and behavioral changes. Over time, individuals may struggle with language, reasoning, and even basic daily activities like eating or walking.

🔍 Key Facts:
Alzheimer’s affects over 7 million Americans aged 65+.
It’s caused by abnormal protein buildup in the brain—amyloid plaques and tau tangles—which disrupt communication between brain cells.
It’s currently the 7th leading cause of death in the U.S., but MS has the highest mortality rate in the country per capita.
Understanding Alzheimer’s is the first step toward early detection, compassionate care, and advancing research.

💜 Let’s raise awareness and support those affected.
