What is Alzheimer’s
It is the opinion of the author that Alzheimer's is not a disease. Rather it is the results of over-toxicity of a multitude of foreign contributors in the human body that collectively serve to destroy the brain as indicated in the following scientific explanation.
Quoted from the National Institute of health handbook on Alzheimer's
“No one knows exactly what starts the Alzheimer’s process or why some of the normal changes associated with aging become so much more extreme and destructive in people with the disease. We know a lot, however, about what happens in the brain once Alzheimer’s takes hold and about the physical and mental changes that occur over time. The time from diagnosis to death varies—as little as 3 or 4 years if the person is older than 80 when diagnosed to as long as 10 or more years if the person is younger. Several other factors besides age also affect how long a person will live with Alzheimer’s. These factors include the person’s sex, the presence of other health problems, and the severity of cognitive problems at diagnosis. Although the course of the disease is not the same in every person with Alzheimer’s, symptoms seem to develop over the same general stages.
Alzheimer’s disease disrupts critical metabolic processes that keep neurons healthy. These disruptions cause nerve cells in the brain to stop working, lose connections with other nerve cells, and finally die. The destruction and death of nerve cells causes the memory failure, personality changes, problems in carrying out daily activities, and other features of the disease.
The brains of people with Alzheimer’s have an abundance of two abnormal structures—amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles—that are made of misfolded proteins. This is especially true in certain regions of the brain that are important in memory. The third main feature of Alzheimer’s is the loss of connections between cells. This leads to diminished cell function and cell death.
Loss of connection between
cells and cell death
The third major feature of Alzheimer’s is the gradual loss of connections between neurons. Neurons live to communicate with each other, and this vital function takes place at the synapse. Since the 1980s, new knowledge about plaques and tangles has provided important insights into their possible damage to synapses and on the development of Alzheimer’s. The Alzheimer’s process not only inhibits communication between neurons but can also damage neurons to the point that they cannot function properly and eventually die. As neurons die throughout the brain, affected regions begin to shrink in a process called brain atrophy. By the final stage of Alzheimer’s, damage is widespread, and brain tissue has shrunk significantly”
