How the Mediterranean Diet May Slow Alzheimer Progression: Insights From Emerging Research

2025-10-31

Alzheimer Disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects memory, behavior, and cognition and is the leading cause of dementia. The underlying etiology involves the accumulation of beta-amyloid (Ab) and tau proteins, which contribute to brain atrophy and progressive cognitive decline. As of 2024, approximately 6.9 million Americans older than 65 years and 57 million adults worldwide were affected by AD. No cure exists for this disease, and current pharmacologic therapies target symptomatic relief only. This review examines the relationship between diet and dementia, with a focus on the role of a Mediterranean diet (MedDi) in potentially preventing or delaying cognitive decline in AD.

Role of Primary Care in the Prevention of Melasma

2023-08-30

Melasma is often referred to as the mask of pregnancy. Affecting 15% to 50% of pregnant people, melasma (or chloasma) presents as irregular, light to dark brown macules in a symmetrical pattern on sun-exposed areas of the body — most commonly the face. Melasma can occur in both men and women but is considerably more prevalent in women, affecting approximately 5 to 6 million women in the United States. This statistic is likely an underestimate, failing to account for those who are misdiagnosed or do not present to clinic for treatment.
