University of New Mexico #scientist is revealing what might be one of the most overlooked causes of #dementia — damage in the #brain tiny #bloodvessels. Dr. Elaine Bearer has created a new way to classify these changes, showing that many people diagnosed with #Alzheimers also suffer from #vascular damage that quietly destroys #brain tissue. Even more surprising, she’s finding #microplastics inside the brain that appear linked to #inflammation & #memory loss. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/10/251005085637.htm #healthcare

An elderly person with short white hair is sitting in a chair, seen through a window. She is wearing glasses, a white shirt, and a light blue apron. They are leaning forward, working on a crossword puzzle.

A wine glass is on a wooden surface in front of her, and a white lantern with star cutouts is next to it. Potted plants and other objects are visible, both inside the room and reflected in the window. The background outside the window shows residential buildings and trees under a colorful sky. — An elderly person with short white hair is sitting in a chair, seen through a window.
