APOE4 gene
A genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease. Having one copy increases risk twofold, two copies tenfold. Its presence makes lifestyle choices, like avoiding alcohol and TBI, even more critical for brain health.

Peter Attia MD
A gene that significantly increases the risk for Alzheimer's disease. However, if an APOE4 carrier is normotensive (normal blood pressure), their risk is not necessarily increased. If they are hypertensive (high blood pressure), the risk is much higher, suggesting a gene by cardiovascular disease interaction.
