MLA Outline

Thesis: Alzheimer is a disease that many people suffer at a certain age and although it is a serious disease many people do not give it the necessary importance.

I. Alzheimer's causes serious damage to people's brains. A. Causes memory loss. B. Causes the person to have personality changes. C. Includes disorientation of people.

II. In our daily life there are many series of things that we do not do or do wrong that lead to Alzheimer's although many do not see it that way.

A. This is due to high blood pressure. B. For having a bad diet. C. For leading a sedentary life without exercising.

III. Rebuttal A. Blood pressure is very common in older people and is a very serious health

problem that can lead to strokes, heart disease, eye problems, kidney failure. B. Eating bad food like hamburgers, pizza, french fries, ice cream. It can cause

damage to our health and that causes too many serious illnesses. C. Physical inactivity is a global epidemic, and not a minor one. Sedentary lifestyle

increases overweight and obesity and it can cause stress on a large scale.

IV. Conclusion A. Alzheimer's is a delicate disease that, due to the symptoms that appear slowly,

many people do not care about it. B. This disease is a product of leading an unhealthy life and not exercising the mind,

although many people do not worry about this, it is a primary factor to avoid suffering from it.
