Official title
Effects of Pecans on Brain Health in Older Americans With Mild Cognitive Impairment: Gut-brain Axis
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This project will investigate whether daily snack consumption can improve memory, mood, and overall brain function in people with cognitive impairment. Sixty participants, aged 50 and older, with cognitive impairment, will be randomly assigned to eat snacks, either pecans or pretzels, for three months. Researchers will also study how snacks (pecans and pretzels) may influence the body, including changes in gut bacteria, blood markers of inflammation, and signals that connect the gut and the brain.
