The disease, impossible to cure, there is only a chance to slow it down It is worth saying that many diseases fit this description, but today we will talk specifically about ... 👉🏻Alzheimer's disease. To date, there are no effective medications that can slow the inexorable progression of this disease. Nor are there preventive medical methods like vaccination. Why can't a cure be found? Because humanity does not yet have a clear understanding of the mechanism by which Alzheimer's disease develops. All we know is that it is caused by an abnormal accumulation of proteins in and around the brain cells. They form "plaques" around the brain cells and "tangles" within them. Such sketchy knowledge only provides an opportunity to slow down the disease.
