Introduction: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized as a neurodegenerative disease, and there is still no clinical cure for this disease, which progresses over time. However, many studies report and prove that through food, we can prevent and/or alleviate the symptoms of AD. Objective: To elucidate the nutrients and dietary patterns that can help in the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Methodology: This study consisted of a narrative review of the literature and 30 scientific articles were selected for this review. Among the inclusion criteria, articles from the years 2014 to 2021, in the public domain, original research from scientific journals, monographs, thesis, dissertation and articles were selected. Exclusion criteria were articles not consistent with the topic, studies carried out on animals, research carried out with other neurodegenerative diseases and studies carried out with people under 30 years of age.
Results: Associated with the delay of cognitive decline, nutrients from omega 3, B vitamins, vitamins C, flavonoids and polyphenols showed positive results in relation to this disease. Conclusion: The inclusion of nutrients, physical activities and exercises for cognitive function are relevant to contribute to the reduction of the incidence of Alzheimer's Disease.
