- Higher meat consumption is associated with better cognitive trajectories and lower dementia risk in individuals with APOE34/44 genotypes.
- No significant associations between meat consumption and cognitive health were found in individuals with other APOE genotypes (APOE22/23/24/33).
- A higher ratio of processed to total meat was unfavorably associated with dementia risk, showing no interaction with APOE genotype.
- The study suggests that dietary recommendations for cognitive health may need to consider APOE genotype for personalized prevention strategies.
- The research was conducted over 15 years in the Swedish National Study on Aging and Care-Kungsholmen (SNAC-K), involving 2157 older adults without dementia.
