Alzheimer's Disease
Causes and Risk Factors
Scientists do not yet fully understand what causes Alzheimer's
disease. For most people there probably is not one single cause,
but several genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors that
affect each person differently. Increasing age is the most
important known risk factor for Alzheimer's disease. The number of
people with the disease doubles every 5 years beyond age 65.
