Understanding the science behind Alzheimer’s disease is very beneficial to me as it will help me adopt a lifestyle that will prevent me from acquiring the disease.
Understanding the science behind this topic will also help me to become more conscious about environmental factors that cause the disease (Alzheimer's Association, 2018).
Alzheimer's disease is caused by a combination of genetic, lifestyle and environmental factors that affect the brain over time. By canging my lifestyle I can prevent myself from the disease.

Understanding the science behind this issue will also help me to create awareness about the possible causes of the disease to the people around me .
In addition, the people around me will have an opportunity to learn from me positive lifestyles that can help prevent the disease.
Less than 1 percent of the time, Alzheimer's is caused by specific genetic changes that virtually guarantee a person will develop the disease. As a result, it is important to understand the environmental factors causing the diasease.

The question pose in project 2 is “What ways can be used be prevent AD and dementia?”
Finding the answer to this question will help the people around me to take preventive measures to avoid acquiring the disease (Alzheimer's Association, 2018).
It will be difficult for people around me to prevent themselves from the disease if the question is not answered effectively.
