MINDSpeed Trial Summary

This trial will test the effects of a diet rich in polyphenols and brain training exercises on cognitive performance in older adults.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for English-speaking adults aged 60 or older with no more than a high school education, living in Marion County or nearby, with a stable address. Participants must be natural-born US citizens and able to provide blood samples. Those in nursing homes, heavy drinkers, previously involved in similar studies, with communication issues, significant brain MRI findings, poor vision/color blindness or certain serious health conditions are excluded.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study examines the impact of foods rich in polyphenols and speed of processing training on cognitive performance in older adults. It involves comparing these interventions against control foods and standard cognitive training exercises to see which combination might improve cognition.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

While the trial primarily involves food intake and cognitive exercises that typically do not have severe side effects like medications do; potential mild side effects may include digestive discomfort from new foods or frustration/stress from challenging brain-training tasks.
