Possible Link Found between Sleep Deprivation and Alzheimer’s

According to a report from Health Day, a link may have been found between sleep deprivation and Alzheimer's. If you or a loved one is suffering from a disabling mental or physical condition, then you could be entitled to Social Security disability benefits.

One particular biomarker, amyloid beta, has been associated with Alzheimer's disease. It has also been found to increase during the day and decrease during the night, which has triggered researchers into looking at the possibility of sleep deprivation being a cause for Alzheimer's or otherwise linked to the disease.

Researchers have always known that sleep deprivation can lead to negative effects on the brain's ability to function properly. They are now looking at whether it plays a role in the underlying processes of what can be a debilitating disease.

While there's much more work that needs to be done in determining a possible link, researchers believe it could be at least a helpful tool in increasing positive brain health.
