Alzheimer’s disease: Alzheimer’s disease is a very dangerous disease in which brain cells start to die and the size of the brain starts to decrease. This disease is rapidly progressing all over the world. The biggest problem is that there is no treatment for it. The risk of this disease increases even more with age.
