A Literature Review on Processed food and Alzheimer's risk

Abstract: Approximately 44 million people worldwide have Alzheimer's disease (AD). Numerous claims have been made regarding the influence of diet on AD development. In particular, in today’s world it is unavoidable to consume ultra-processed food as it provides people with a more convenient lifestyle. However, many previous researches have shown that ultra-processed food intake affects health outcomes, for example, metabolic diseases, cardiovascular problems, and also effects to cognitive function. Numerous studies on the effect of diet on Alzheimer’s point to nutrition as a heavily influential factor in the development of dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). This study systematically reviews these articles using the PubMed for articles published in English between 2017 and the end of July 2022 to understand the association between ultra-processed foods intakes and Alzheimer’s disease. The results from this study suggest that, it should be considered as important to gain a better understanding of Alzheimer's disease pathogeneses. The association between Ultra-processed foods and Alzheimer’s disease should be concerned. It is beneficial to discuss the evidences of recently established interventions considered to prevent or delay the prodromes of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease and provide the prospective future directions in prevention and management of dementia and Alzheimer's disease. Diet is considered as important factors that help prevent or delay the development of Alzheimer’s disease and other dementia-related diseases. Preventing or postponing the onset of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and delaying its progression would lead to an improvement of health status and quality of the older age life. This study also report the main findings that can guide further research. Keywords: Ultra-processed foods, Western diet, Dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, Processed foods.
