| Avocado Cognition Randomized Trial | 3 4 [5] [6] [7] [8] 9 10 Dietary patterns rich in antioxidants, unsaturated fats, and fiber have been associated with favorable effects on brain health and cognitive performance []. | 2 | Lee Grace J. (2026) | Effects of one avocado a day for six months on cognitive performance in overweight adults: A randomized controlled trial |
| Avocado Cognition Randomized Trial | Polyphenol-rich foods such as blueberries and cocoa have been shown to enhance cerebral blood flow and brain activation [] and are linked to improved cognitive performance and reduced cognitive decline in older adults [,,,]. | 2 | Lee Grace J. (2026) | Effects of one avocado a day for six months on cognitive performance in overweight adults: A randomized controlled trial |
| Avocado Cognition Randomized Trial | Nuts, rich in unsaturated fats, fiber and bioactive phytonutrients have been associated with better cognitive outcomes and slower rate of cognitive decline across longitudinal studies [,]. | 2 | Lee Grace J. (2026) | Effects of one avocado a day for six months on cognitive performance in overweight adults: A randomized controlled trial |
| Avocado Cognition Randomized Trial | 1 2 1 The global population is aging [], and the number of older adults diagnosed with neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) continues to rise, along with other chronic diseases that adversely affect cognitive function []. | 2 | Lee Grace J. (2026) | Effects of one avocado a day for six months on cognitive performance in overweight adults: A randomized controlled trial |
| Avocado Cognition Randomized Trial | The most common one includes vascular risk factors, which are central to the pathogenesis of VaD but also contribute significantly to AD and other dementias. | 3 | González-Cidad Aitor (2026) | Beneficial Effects of Olive Oil and the Mediterranean Diet on Alzheimer’s Disease and Vascular Dementia: A Review |
| Avocado Cognition Randomized Trial | These modifiable risk factors include arterial hypertension []—the major risk factor at the population level—as well as dyslipidemia and high body mass index (BMI), all of which can trigger inflammation and stenosis of cerebral blood vessels, leading to reduced blood flow and neural tissue damage. | 3 | González-Cidad Aitor (2026) | Beneficial Effects of Olive Oil and the Mediterranean Diet on Alzheimer’s Disease and Vascular Dementia: A Review |
| Avocado Cognition Randomized Trial | A prior history of stroke is regarded as the strongest vascular risk factor for developing VaD and AD []; nevertheless, metabolic disorders such as diabetes mellitus also contribute significantly by inducing systemic damage to the cerebral microvasculature. | 3 | González-Cidad Aitor (2026) | Beneficial Effects of Olive Oil and the Mediterranean Diet on Alzheimer’s Disease and Vascular Dementia: A Review |
