Dietary patterns and cardiorespiratory fitness in midlife and subsequent all-cause dementia: findings from the Cooper Center Longitudinal Study
In this sample of apparently healthy middle-aged adults seeking preventive care, higher CRF at midlife was associated with a lower risk of all-cause dementia, though adherence to a Mediterranean or DASH diet was not, and CRF did not modify the diet-dementia association. CRF should be emphasized in multimodal interventions for dementia prevention and investigated among diverse samples.
