The Mediterranean diet is used by many to lose weight sustainably, but it may also help to ward off dementia.
The chances of a person developing dementia may be lowered if they adopt a certain kind of diet, according to scientists.
The findings, published in the journal BMC Medicine, are based on data from more than 60,000 individuals from the UK Biobank – an online database of medical and lifestyle records from more than half a million Brits. Dr Oliver Shannon, lecturer in Human Nutrition & Ageing at Newcastle University, who is lead author on the study, said: "Dementia impacts the lives of millions of individuals throughout the world, and there are currently limited options for treating this condition.
Dr Shannon and his colleagues analysed data from 60,298 people who had completed a dietary assessment, and the researchers scored individuals using two measures for adherence to the Mediterranean diet. The scientists also said the Mediterranean diet had a "protective effect" against dementia, no matter what their genetic risk was, but added that more studies are needed to explore this finding.
