Abstract
This chapter discusses any plausible correlation between malnutrition and the onset of Alzheimer's disease. An overview of Alzheimer's pathophysiology is included to offer an understanding of the various underlying causes leading to its manifestation. The role of nutrition along with the effects of diet and dietary modulations has been addressed to identify its effect on preventing onset or halting the progression. Different interventions have been explored to supplement existing diets to arrest or halt the deterioration in cognitive abilities.
