BY Penelope Judson 2018-06-04People with small heads are more likely to develop Alzheimer's disease than people with big heads. A German study found that below-average brain circumference (58 cm for men and 55 cm for women) greatly increases the risk of Alzheimer's disease. The reason is that if the head is larger, the brain contains more neurons, which can better fight aging.4
