Infections and Alzheimer's: A Hidden Link
Numerous studies, exceeding 6,000, have emerged linking various infections to Alzheimer's disease, with a notable focus on herpes simplex virus type 1. This virus has shown a capacity to induce the formation of Alzheimer's-related plaques and tangles in the brain, particularly in animal models. A serious herpes outbreak in a 29-year-old subject raised concerns, especially given the established notion that infections around the eyes could lead to brain complications. This reinforces the idea that herpes infections can potentially trigger neurological issues similar to those seen in Alzheimer's disease. Additionally, the medication Vioxx, an anti-inflammatory primarily used for arthritis, is speculated to have a role in exacerbating these conditions.
