Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This single-center, randomized trial examined the effect of MIND diet intervention on cognition and brain structure changes of healthy obese women over three months. The intervention group was lea to calorie-restricted modified by the MIND diet, and the control group received a calorie-restricted standard diet. The primary end-point was an assessment of cognitive performances measured with a comprehensive cognitive test battery. Secondary end-points were voxel-based morphometry to quantify the differences in brain structures. Our results revealed MIND diet could improve working memory, verbal recognition memory, and attention, more in comparison with the control group. Results also suggest that an increase in inferior frontal gyrus in the MIND diet group. Our study, for the first time, underlined that good adherence to the MIND diet as well as calorie restriction could reverse the destructive effect of obesity on cognition.

calorie-restricted modified MIND diet

This arm received instruction in modifying the content of their diet to meet MIND pattern guidelines.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

New Dietary pattern ( Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND))

Intervention Type OTHER

A new brain-protection pattern that has been designed after the Mediterranean and DASH diet to improve some of their dietary factors to have the highest impact on brain health and cognitive performance.

calorie-restricted standard control diet

They instructed to calorie-restricted diet alone.
