MIND diet and dementia

Caption

The likelihood of developing dementia was 12%-13% lower overall among people with high adherence to the MIND diet compared to those with low adherence. This relationship was most pronounced among Latinos, Whites and African Americans, while it was not as apparent among Asian Americans and showed a weaker trend in Native Hawaiians.
