Adherence to the planetary health diet is associated with slower cognitive decline: a prospective cohort analysis of Chinese older adults.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The EAT-Lancet commission has proposed a planetary health reference diet (PHD) aiming to improve human health and global environmental sustainability. Emerging evidence suggests that high-quality diet is a modified risk factor cognitive decline. However, population-based evidence in relation to the association between this diet and cognitive decline is scarce.

Methods

This prospective cohort study examined data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS) during 1997-2011.We included 3404 adults aged 60 years and older with normal cognition at baseline. Dietary intake was assessed using 3-day 24 h dietary recalls combined with weighing methods and cognitive function was assessed using repeated measures of the Telephone Interview for Cognitive Status-modified
