Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive, irreversible brain disorder. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia among older people. Alzheimer’ destroys a person’s memory and ability to learn, reason, make judgments, communicate and carry out daily activities. Genetic factors are suspected, and dominant mutations in three different genes have been identified that account for a much smaller number of cases of familial, early-onset AD. People with dementia often have trouble thinking and speaking clearly, remembering recent events, and learning new things. Over time, it becomes hard for them to handle everyday activities and take care of themselves. Age is the most important risk factor for AD; the number of people with the disease doubles every 5 years beyond age 65. Three genes have been discovered that cause early onset (familial) AD. Other genetic mutations that cause excessive accumulation of amyloid protein are associated with age-related (sporadic) AD. AD is part of an immune response that is attempting to contain the disease. The former may be more likely, since research indicates that anti-inflammatory drugs can prevent or retard AD development.

It’s stunning but it’s true. The American Heart Association reports that 73 million, that is one third of adult Americans suffer from hypertension. Two million children and teenagers are also affected by high blood pressure. High blood pressure is said to have occurred when blood flows through arteries with higher than normal force. Genetic inheritance, high salt consumption or thickenings of arterial walls are the major reasons behind this.

Due to high blood pressure, the risk of heart attack, stroke, and aneurysm are more for the people who have it than those who are not affected high blood pressure. Now modern medical science has found that high blood pressure is also responsible for Alzheimer’s disease; it reduced the flow of sufficient blood in the brain. That may lead to this dreaded disease as our brain needs to have ample supply of oxygen all the time.
