Association between plant-based diets and incident dementia: results from prospective cohort studies and a meta-analysis
The healthful plant-based diet was associated with lower risk of dementia, whereas the unhealthful plant-based diet was linked to higher risk. These findings support recommendations to adopt diets rich in healthy plant foods for dementia prevention.
