Both the MIND and Mediterranean diets reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s disease; however, MIND is a more flexible diet, making it easier for some Americans to follow. For example, the Mediterranean diet recommends eating fish multiple times a week, which can be challenging.
Remember that you do not have to follow a perfect diet to benefit. The study’s participants who ate the healthiest diet (an average score of 9.6 points out of 15) reduced their risk the most, while those who scored in the middle (7.5 points) still reduced their risk by over a third. Think about improving your scores and brain health by focusing on just one or two of the habits above.
