In this digital age, there is an information overload on the internet about everything. While many are facts, there are also myths about certain topics too. For a disease such as Alzheimer, it is important to distinguish the difference between facts and myths in order to understand the disease, and provide best treatment for your loved ones that are suffering from it. Many people believes that memory loss is a natural part of aging. Occasion memory problems is normal, but when the memory problems are forgetting the name of a long time friend or the road back home, there may be a malfunction in the brain and could be an warning sign of Alzheimer’s Disease. Another common fact about Alzheimer’s is that the disease is not fatal. Because it has no cure, the Alzheimer’s Association has put it bluntly,” Alzheimer’s disease has no survivors.” Reason being the disease slowly destroy the brain, causing problems in memory, behaviors, and body functions while stripping away the person’s identity and ability to connect with others. Another myth is that aluminum causes Alzheimer’s. That is far from the truth, studies have disproved the notion that aluminum is any threat to increase the risk factor for getting Alzheimer’s. There are many other myths and facts out there for all of us to sort out. If there is an Alzheimer’s related concern, we encourage you to consult a doctor or other professionals.
