“Our study was observational, so it cannot prove that changing diet will improve prognosis or prevent dementia, including among people with early biological signs of disease. That said, the findings are consistent with the broader view that diet quality remains relevant for brain health. For older adults, including those concerned about dementia risk, it is reasonable to follow established healthy eating advice.”
