Alzheimer’s disease is the most common cause of dementia, and it has gravely affected many families in the United States. According to the National Institute of Aging (NIA), over 5 million Americans have Alzheimer’s disease. Caring for these patients entail a lot of effort, patience, and sacrifices, especially for the assigned caregiver in the family. Besides heart disease and cancer, the NIA also said that Alzheimer’s ranks third as the leading cause of death among the elderly. Previous studies have found that the primary feature of a brain affected with Alzheimer’s is the presence of plaques and tangles in the fibers, then it will progress to communication loss among neurons, wherein these neurons serve as messengers of the brain to the rest of the body and vice versa.
