The Role of Diet in Dementia Prevention: Subjective and Objective Diet Scores

Mean observed MIND diet and Veggie Meter scores show less than desirable intake of carotenoid-rich foods for reduction of AD/ADRD risk among participants. The majority of participants take dietary supplements, and few consume a diet supportive of brain health. Few cohort studies include subjective and objective diet assessments with actionable feedback for participants. These preliminary findings emphasize the need for further research into dietary interventions for prevention or delay of cognitive decline.
