Neuroprotective Effects of Oleanolic Acid and Erythrodiol in Prodromal Alzheimer's Disease

This trial tests whether eating about 55 mL (roughly 4 tablespoons) a day of olive oil rich in two natural compounds, oleanolic acid and erythrodiol, slows the shift from early Alzheimer's to dementia over 12 months. It compares three oils in 120 adults in Spain. It is a food study with no phase, so nothing here is proven.
