SUMMARY: Research indicates that Alzheimer’s and dementia diagnoses may be influenced by geographic factors, with the highest rates found in the Southeast U.S. This region, often referred to as the “stroke belt,” has stroke rates two to four times higher than elsewhere in the country. Dr. Do at Nooba General Hospital highlights that African-Americans, Hispanics, and women are at greater risk. Contributing factors include genetics, lifestyle choices, and the prevalence of conditions like cardiovascular disease and diabetes, exacerbated by high processed food intake.
