Answer and Explanation:

  Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease probably caused by the accumulation of beta-amyloid peptide in the brain. AD is the leading cause of dementia in the elderly people. Usually presents with gradual symptoms of loss of cognitive functions (memory, orientation, attention and language) caused by the death of neurons.  

  Similar to AD, we have Lewy body dementia and Parkinson's disease dementia, which may be variations of the same disease. In this disease, synuclein (a protein in the brain that helps nerve cells to communicate) changes shape (remains "badly folded") and slowly accumulates mainly in the brain, but also in the digestive tract and heart.

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

"I will eat a meat source such as chicken or pork with each meal."

Explanation:

Vitamin B12, or cobalamin, is one of eight B-complex vitamins. It is found only in animal foods (except honey), such as red meats, seafood, fish, eggs and milk, and is responsible for important functions in the body. Vitamin B12 deficiency is difficult to diagnose, but can cause serious conditions such as megaloblastic anemia and pernicious anemia. Specific groups in society, such as non-supplementary vegetarians and vegans and people over 50, are those most vulnerable to vitamin B12 deficiency.

Regarding the customer exposed in the question, the statement "I will eat a meat source such as chicken or pork with each meal." demonstrates that he is well informed and has correctly learned all the claims about vitamin B12.
