We may finally know what causes Alzheimer’s and possibly the majority of senility cases. AFTER decades of disappointment, we have a new, promising lead for fighting Alzheimer’s disease. There is compelling evidence that these conditions are caused by a bacterium involved in gum disease which could prove a game-changer in tackling one of medicine’s biggest mysteries, and lead to effective treatments or even a vaccine. This could be a game changing benefit for the worlds ever-rising aged population concerning personal health, governmental, insurance, and related costs to treat the elderly, presently baby-boomers of retirement age.
