Some fact and fiction about increasing your risk for Alzheimer's

FACT - There is a link between gum health and developing Alzheimer's.

On the surface of bacteria often related with gum disease (P. gingivalis) is lipopolysaccharides.  These have been found in the brain of deceased Alzhiemer's, are not not found on the brain's of those without Alzheimer's.
The theory behind linking gum disease with Alzheimer’s is that the presence of gum bacteria lipopolysaccharides in the brain may cause inflammation. This in turn could trigger a biological cascade that may be linked to the brain changes associated with Alzheimer’s disease.

FICTION - FLU shots increase your risk for Alzheimer's

The truth is that several studies show that the flu shot and other vaccines reduce your risk of Alzheimer's.
