Sleep Disruptions and Alzheimer's Disease

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

Actually, there is no direct link between sleep disturbances and Alzheimer's disease. However, it is essential to consider that chronic sleep problems can significantly impact memory and cognitive processes, which are vital for maintaining a healthy mind. Sleep disorders can affect cognitive functions, including memory processing. Still, it is not accurate to conclude that such problems directly lead to the development of Alzheimer's or other dementia-related conditions.

Thanks
