A 20-year study found no link between people's dietary habits in midlife and their later risk of dementia.
A"Mediterranean diet" does not lower the odds of developing dementia, a 20-year study from Sweden suggests.
That said, similar to previous studies, the research relied on self-reported dietary data from participants, which may not be wholly accurate and can somewhat skew the interpretation of the results.The effect of diet on dementia Physiologist Ancel Keys and biochemist Margaret Keys, a husband-wife duo, derived the Mediterranean diet from Ancel's influential research on the link between men's diets and their risk of heart attack and stroke.
"Diet as a singular factor may not have a strong enough effect on cognition, but is more likely to be considered as one factor embedded with various others, the sum of which may influence the course of cognitive function," Dr. Nils Peters , a neurology specialist at the Stroke Center Klinik Hirslanden in Zurich, Switzerland, and Benedetta Nacmias , an associate professor of neurology at the University of Florence, wrote in an Oct. 12 commentary published in Neurology.
