Alzheimer’s disease is a complex condition that doesn’t arise from one single cause, but rather a mix of factors that slowly damage the brain. One of the main culprits is the buildup of beta-amyloid plaques, which accumulate between nerve cells. These plaques block the signals that help neurons communicate, interfering with essential brain functions. Another key factor is the formation of neurofibrillary tangles. These tangles, made of twisted protein fibers, accumulate inside the neurons, disrupting their internal structures. Over time, this leads to the death of brain cells, contributing to the cognitive decline. Inflammation plays a significant role too. Chronic neuroinflammation—the brain’s response to injury or damage—can become persistent in Alzheimer’s, causing further harm to brain cells and worsening the disease. Lastly, oxidative stress and problems with the mitochondria, the energy factories of our cells, also contribute to the brain’s aging process. This damage accelerates the decline of neuronal function, making it harder for the brain to function as it once did.

Alzheimer’s: The Slow Fade of Life
Alzheimer's disease is a relentless and silent thief that steals the essence of who a person once was. It begins as something subtle—a forgotten name here, a misplaced item there—but gradually, it takes more. This disease, the most common form of dementia, affects over
two-thirds of people aged 65 and older. It doesn’t just affect the memory; it slowly chips away at one’s ability to reason, to think clearly, and to communicate.
At first, you might notice little things: a word on the tip of your tongue that doesn’t quite com out or the feeling that you’ve forgotten something important, but you can’t pinpoint it. As the
disease progresses, however, these lapses become more frequent and more pronounced.
Simple tasks become daunting. Conversations become difficult. Familiar faces and places may become unrecognizable.Though Alzheimer’s doesn’t directly claim a life, it leaves the body vulnerable to other complications. The decline in cognitive and behavioral abilities makes it harder for the person to care for themselves, increasing the risks of other health issues. In the end, it’s the complications that often lead to death. The impact of Alzheimer's is far-reaching, not just for the person who suffers, but for everyone around them.
