AD is responsible for the vast majority of dementia cases, and the increasing prevalence of the disease worldwide is a major public health concern.

These factors are closely related to our way of life, what we eat, and the pathophysiology that can modify and prevent in our day-to-day activities. Since there currently exists no effective and proven treatment or preventative measure for AD, increasing focus is being placed on disease prevention in general and the healthy diet in particular. To reduce the probability of developing AD, preventive intervention should be started as early as possible. Due to the neurodegenerative characteristics of this condition, adequate diet must be taken into account as it has both protective and preventative benefits. These include caffeine, isoflavone phytoestrogen, polyphenols, vitamin B, vitamin D, antioxidant vitamins (vitamins C, E, beta-carotene), minerals (avoid copper, iron, and aluminium), unsaturated fatty acids, vitamin B, and vitamin D.
