1. alzheimer's

   Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurological disorder that leads to the degeneration of brain cells, causing memory loss, cognitive decline, and behavioral changes. It is the most common type of dementia that typically affects people over the age of 65 and has a significant impact on an individual's ability to carry out daily life activities. Alzheimer's disease is characterized by the buildup of abnormal structures called 'plaques' and 'tangles' in the brain. It is a non-reversible disease and its causes and cure are currently unknown.
