Dietary changes following a lifestyle-based intervention for dementia risk reduction – results from the AgeWell.de study
A multidomain lifestyle intervention improved participants' diet and maintained motivation to change in an at-risk-sample. However, only fruit- and vegetable consumption increased. Additional support might be necessary to encourage older adults to integrate new, healthier food components into their diet. Control group participants transitioned to initial stages of behavior change, stressing the need to encourage older adults to maintain a healthy diet as they age. AGEWELL.DE WAS PROSPECTIVELY REGISTERED IN THE GERMAN CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTER (DRKS; IDENTIFIER: DRKS00013555) ON DECEMBER 7TH, 2017: DRKS00013555.
