COVID-19 an Alzheimer’s Trigger? [Study]

By Jack Taylor Posted September 3, 2021

Dear Turapür Today Reader,

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, countless studies have found that, for certain individuals, the virus can have a serious impact on the brain.

One of the most well-documented findings of COVID-19 and brain health is that some folks experience ‘brain fog’ – even well after the virus has left their body.

But according to some new research, brain fog could be the tip of the iceberg when it comes to COVID-19’s brain impact.

In fact, a new study has found that COVID-19 could trigger – and even accelerate – Alzheimer’s disease!

Here’s what you need to know.

According to a study presented at the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference, new data suggests that COVID-19 could accelerate the development and onset of Alzheimer’s.

How, exactly?

According to the study, symptoms like memory loss and confusion are common symptoms for older adults affected by COVID-19, even up to six months after infection – which can lead to cognitive decline.

And for older adults that did suffer cognitive decline, they were more susceptible to low blood oxygen to the brain – which is a widely known precursor to Alzheimer’s.

Now, let’s be clear…

While the COVID-19 pandemic feels like it’s been going on forever, understanding the long-term effects of the virus are still fairly young and continue to be studied – especially when it comes to the long-term impact on the brain.

But these initial findings between COVID-19 and Alzheimer’s triggers are important as they continue to shed more light on the long-term effects of the virus… which will allow scientists and researchers to further investigate (and potentially develop) methods to help stave off the effects of COVID-19.

As more findings between Alzheimer’s and COVID become available, we will be sure to report them.

In the meantime, COVID-19 isn’t going away. But by taking a few easy, proactive measures like masking and avoiding areas of COVID-19 exposure are just some of the simple, best ways to stay safe.

Now, if you have been affected by COVID-19 and are worried it has impacted your memory, have a conversation with your doctor. Explaining your symptoms and understanding the facts about COVID-19 will help guide a carefully crafted long-term plan.
