Abstract
One of the most important social problems that many of the developed countries face is the constant rise of the percentage of the elderly population values. A major health issue affecting this part of the population is the appearance of dementia of the Alzheimers type (AD) which is the most common case of dementia, affecting around 50 million people worldwide. In addition, the frequency of the AD related cases is expected to grow three times over the next 50 years.
