Dementia may be caused by a variety of illnesses or result from some type of brain injury. Alzheimer’s disease is the number one cause of dementia today. The second most common dementia is multi-infarct dementia. Some causes of dementia are treatable, such as those found with vitamin B-12 and folic acid deficiency. Neurological diseases, such as Parkinson’s and Huntington’s Chorea, may also cause dementia.
