Summary: Researchers looked at more than 800 older adult participants not affected by Alzheimer’s disease to find out whether eating fish protects against Alzheimer’s disease. Participants who consume fish once per week or more have 60 percent less risk of Alzheimer’s disease compared with those who rarely or never eat fish.
