What Environmental Toxins Are Implicated in Alzheimer's?
Several environmental toxins have been studied for their potential link to Alzheimer's. Air pollution, particularly fine particulate matter, has been associated with increased risk of cognitive decline. Pesticides like DDT have also been studied for their neurotoxic effects. Additionally, exposure to heavy metals such as lead, mercury, and aluminum is of concern due to their potential to accumulate in the brain and cause neurodegeneration.
