Alzheimer's disease is a disease that leads to a shortening of human life.
In this case, we will talk about the risk factors for the development of this disease.
The Alzheimer's development group includes people suffering from dyslipidemia, diabetes, and high blood pressure. RIA Novosti reports details with reference to neurologist Vladimir Martynov.
It is noted that factors in the development of this disease may be bad habits associated with excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages and smoking.
According to Martynov, to reduce the risk, it is necessary to address the underlying disease.
He also noted that in addition to the factors mentioned, genetics plays a major role. From 5 to 15% of cases of the disease are familial.
