Finding Paragraph #3
As the minds of many American's begin to slowly deteriorate because of Alzheimer's disease, which is a step farther than dementia, we sometimes wonder if it happens across the world too. As a matter of fact, studies have shown that it does. “According to the researchers, the increases in global dementia prevalence were driven primarily by new data from low and middle income countries. Estimates for three regions are higher – Western Europe, South Asia and Latin America than the 2005 estimates. The estimate for East Asia is lower.” (Alzheimer's, Dementia & Mental Health) This quote means that just as the numbers are on the rise for people who have Alzheimer's here in America, there are other places around the world where this disease is starting to be found. For a while, Alzheimer's was a rare disease that many people thought was only genetic, but studies have shown that it can also be because of the environment you may live or work it. The best thing for you to do, is to is to set an appointment up with your doctor and get a test run to see of you have this disease or carry the gene for this disease. Many people across the world, may show signs of having an ignominious behavior because they have developed this disease, but this has become a common factor because of the state that person has been placed in. There has not been much study from doctors across the world, but we have seen that this disease is not just stopping with the American mind; it is traveling far and wide, to ruin, sadden, and depress the lives of many.
