It is a brain disorder that slowly destroys our memory and thinking skills and carries out simple tasks. The main reason for abnormal behaviour of people is a reduction of protein buildup in and around brain cells. This protein is called amyloid which forms plagues around brain cells. The other protein is Tau which gets deposited and forms tangles within brain cells. Both these protein deposits destroy the brain cells, thereby happens to be a loss of the connection between the nerve cells (neurons) in the brain that disturbs functioning.
