Alzheimer's disease leads to death primarily due to its progressive degeneration of brain cells, which impairs critical functions such as memory, cognition, and daily activities. As the disease advances, individuals may become unable to care for themselves, leading to complications like infections (e.g., pneumonia), malnutrition, or dehydration. Ultimately, the cumulative effects of these health issues, along with the loss of bodily functions, contribute to mortality in Alzheimer's patients.
