The Harvard MIND Trial to prevent Alzheimer’s Disease is looking for men and women ages 65-84 to participate in a ground-breaking, three year study. To qualify, you must be overweight, have a family history of Alzheimer’s or dementia, and be able to come to Boston once a month. This study compares two different diets and their effect on brain health while using lifestyle changes to help you lose weight, and live healthier. Over the course of three years, you will be assigned your own personal dietitian, and receive one-on-one dietary counseling to help you reach your weight loss goals.
