Understanding the differences between Alzheimer’s and dementia is crucial for addressing brain aging issues. Dementia encompasses a range of symptoms like brain fog and memory loss, often caused by vascular problems such as brain ischemia, similar to heart angina. Alzheimer’s, a specific type of dementia, involves amyloid deposits, which many believe are the brain’s response to inflammation. Recent studies show that having a double set of lipoprotein B significantly increases the risk of Alzheimer’s. Additionally, cholesterol levels, especially with two lipoprotein A4s, play a critical role in developing this condition.
Key Points:
Alzheimer’s vs. dementia: understanding the differences.
Causes of dementia: vascular issues and brain ischemia.
Alzheimer’s: amyloid deposits and inflammation.
Risk factors: lipoprotein B and cholesterol levels.
