An analysis from the Framingham Heart Study followed 1,647 adults for roughly 12 years and found that those who adhered more closely to the MIND diet showed significantly less grey matter loss on MRI scans. The MIND diet combines elements of the Mediterranean and DASH diets, emphasising leafy greens, berries and whole grains to support brain health. The findings add to growing evidence that diet may help protect against age-related cognitive decline.
