Around 50 million people worldwide are living with Alzheimer's disease. This number is expected to increase as the population ages, with estimates suggesting that by 2050, the number of people with Alzheimer's could reach 152 million.
People with Alzheimer's disease may exhibit symptoms such as memory loss, confusion, disorientation, mood changes, difficulty with language, and impaired judgment. They may also experience changes in behavior, such as agitation, aggression, wandering, and withdrawal from social interactions. It is important to seek medical advice for proper diagnosis and management of these symptoms.
No, rubbing metal on metal does not cause Alzheimer's disease. Alzheimer's is a complex neurodegenerative disorder that is influenced by a combination of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. While certain metals like aluminum have been studied in relation to Alzheimer's, their role as a causative factor is still under investigation and not definitively proven.
Taking care of Alzheimer's patients involves creating a safe and structured environment, providing consistent routines, utilizing memory aids like calendars and notes, ensuring good nutrition and hydration, and engaging in activities that stimulate memory and cognitive function. It is also important to communicate clearly and calmly, show patience, and seek support from healthcare professionals and support groups.
