Summary

Key points. There is currently too little hard evidence to propose a single diet in order to prevent cognitive decline. Dietary changes can influence cognition / cognitive decline, although long periods of adherence need to be taken into account before significant results can be seen. It is paramount to offer nutritional education already at an early age. Since the 'optimal diet' is not the same in each age group, dietary advice must be patient-tailored.
