The arsenal against Alzheimer's may get a pleasurable addition, a mediterranean diet chock full of fish, olive oil, grains, fresh produce and moderate amounts of wine, a study suggested.

Investigators who studied 2,258 New Yorkers found that those who followed the diet most closely were significantly less likely to develop Alzheimer's over the four year follow up , according to results in Neurology.

Compared with people who followed the plan loosely, those who were most faithful to the diet, with low amounts of diary products, saturated facts, meat and poultry , were about 40% less likely to develop Alzheimer's , the study showed.

The diet already has been associated with a lower risk of cancer , heart disease and premature death, and elements of it showed promise against Alzheimer's in previous research, investigators said.

Studies have shown that eating certain foods and supplements, such as fish and folic acid may lower the risk of Alzheimer's, or slow its progression the researchers said.

The investigation looked at people's existing diets , and compared eating habits to the Mediterranean diet.
