Vascular dementia (VaD) is the second most common form of dementia after Alzheimer's disease (AD). 1,2 Inflammation and altered lipid dyshomeostasis have been implicated in the pathogenesis of AD and VaD. 3 The Mediterranean and the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diets have been associated with improved cognitive performance and reduced incident risk of dementia. 4 These diets have been associated with reduced plasma lipid levels and lower plasma inflammatory markers. 5 The Mediterranean diet involves regular intake of fruits and vegetables, whole grain products, low-fat dairy products, olive oil, fish, poultry, and wine with meat. Similarly, the DASH diet comprises regular intake of fruits and vegetables, low-fat dairy, legumes, nuts, and lower intake of animal proteins and sweets.
