Thanksgiving is coming... and holidays too! With all the food options around... What's best for you?

Can eating a specific food or following a particular diet help prevent or delay dementia caused by Alzheimer’s disease? Check out this article from our friends at the NIA/NIH.

For questions or concerns about your cognitive health, visit our website: www.adrc.pitt.edu

We don’t know for sure whether following a certain diet can help prevent Alzheimer’s dementia. Many studies are underway to see how food affects the aging brain.
