Explanation
Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia and is characterized by the accumulation of two abnormal proteins in the brain. These deposits lead to progressive damage and loss of neurons, particularly in areas of the brain responsible for memory and cognitive function. The main symptoms of Alzheimer's disease revolve around memory impairment, difficulty in learning new information, language problems, disorientation, and problems with reasoning and judgment. As the disease progresses, individuals may experience personality changes and difficulties with daily activities.
