The evidence suggests that mercury could be a factor in Alzheimer’s disease. Mercury exposure has risen worldwide in the last decades. This is due to the fact that mercury, which is released in the biosphere through industrial activities, medicinal usages, and the burning of fossil fuels, is not able to degrade. Thus, all mercury released into the biosphere will accumulate and become additive for thousands of years.

Typical brain damage in AD commences 20 to 50 years before symptoms manifest. Most of the U.S. population has been exposed to mercury from several sources, from prenatal to postnatal. Further research is needed to explore the hypothesis that mercury may be an etiological factor in AD.
