Can intaking too much protein lead to Alzheimer's disease later in life?

I am doing a paper on Alzheimer’s disease right now and it seems it is caused by protein build-ups in the brain. I weight-lift and take in a lot of protein because of it. My grandmother who had Alzheimer’s obviously did not and probably had a low protein intake so I am wondering if a high protein diet is what leads to Alzheimer’s. Does anyone know for certain if high protein diets can lead to it later in life?

If not, what is the cause? Will reading and keeping your mind active prevent such a disease? Thank’s…
