7 Facts about Alzheimer’s Disease | As of June 2018, Alzheimer’s disease is still without a cure. It can’t even be slowed down, although scientists all over the world are working on it. To give them moral support, you can wear purple; to give them material support, you can donate money to the Alzheimer’s Association. Another way to play your part in the fight against Alzheimer’s is to help spread the word about the factors that increase/decrease the risk of this disease.

7 Facts about Alzheimer’s Disease:

  1. Alzheimer’s is a progressive brain disorder, which means that its symptoms get more severe over time.
  2. Almost two-thirds of Alzheimer’s sufferers are women.
  3. In some cases, Alzheimer’s is genetically passed down, but genes aren’t always the decisive factor.
  4. Our lifestyles have more impact on Alzheimer’s disease risks than our genes. People who smoke, drink, and eat unhealthy diets are more likely to develop Alzheimer’s then those who lead healthy lifestyles.
  5. Regular exercise is proven to have a great impact on the brain health and can even prevent Alzheimer’s disease.
  6. Watching TV is the only leisure activity that is proven to have a negative impact on your brain. Because it doesn’t make the brain work hard, this activity increases the risk of Alzheimer’s disease.
  7. By wearing purple, people are showing their support for the battle against this brain disease.
