Official title
Extra-virgin Olive Oil Prevents Mild Cognitive Impairment Conversion to Alzheimer's Disease
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Until now there is no medical treatment and/or intervention that can slow, stop or reverse the underlying neurodegenerative of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The goal of this study is to demonstrate "Oleocanthal rich-extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO) consumption stops or delay mild cognitive impairment conversion to AD by restoring the blood-brain barrier (BBB) function in humans". Specific Aims: 1. Evaluate effect of EVOO on the brain function by functional MRI (fMRI) imaging, and BBB function by dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI). 2. Evaluate effect of EVOO on cognitive function and on selected biomarkers
