The lack of effective treatments makes it essential to develop new strategies for healthy cognitive aging, including interventions to slow or prevent cognitive decline. A traditional Mediterranean diet, rich in polyphenols (PPs), may prevent or delay the onset of cognitive dysfunction in older adults, preserving healthy brain structure and function, and lowering the risk of AD. These effects, mediated in part by gut microbiome-derived PP metabolites, highlight the role alterations in the brain-gut microbiome system play in neurodegeneration. Moreover, high levels of circulating phenyl-y-valerolactones, neuroprotective compounds, exclusively produced by gut microbiota from flavan-3-ol-rich foods (e.g., cocoa, tea, berries) are associated with delaying the onset of cognitive dysfunction in older adults. Intake of such PPs can also change gut microbial composition and function, altering the physiology of the hosts secondary bile acid (BA) pool, affecting regulatory and signaling functions in the brain as well as cognitive decline and AD. The investigators hypothesize that, in older adults with enhanced AD risk, dietary intake of PPs maintains healthier brain features and cognitive function, and that this beneficial effect is mediated by gut microbiota metabolites of PPs and BAs.\n\nIn this multi-PI application by leaders in the field of brain-gut microbiome interactions, the investigators will conduct a year-long, multi-center, randomized double-blind placebo-controlled study in 300 older adults in the United States (validation sample of 100 from Northern Ireland) who are at enhanced risk of developing AD. Ultimately, the investigators will establish the protective effects of regular dietary PP intake on cognitive function and on brain-gut microbiome interactions, ideally allowing the development of effective dietary regimes to prevent of delay the onset of AD in at-risk elderly, thereby reducing cognitive decline and healthcare costs.\n\nParticipants will be asked to provide information about their diet, mood, and behaviors via food diaries, physical body measures (e.g. height, weight, etc.), and online questionnaires collected before each in-clinic appointment, as well as monthly online questionnaires. MR imaging will be collected on participants to assess neurocognitive changes as a result of the supplement. Participants will be asked to provide both stool and blood samples. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the Juice Plus+ intervention group or the placebo treatment group and then asked to take their respective supplement 4 pills twice a day. All participants will be asked to come in for 4 in-clinic appointments, including 3 brain MRI scans and 3 cognitive testing appointments, collect 3 stool samples with corresponding diet diaries, and provide 3 blood samples over the course of 12 months.

This questionnaire is designed to help identify problems with thinking and daily mental functioning that are common in people with liver cirrhosis but are often missed during routine care.\n\nPeople with liver cirrhosis may experience problems such as forgetfulness, slowed thinking, trouble paying attention, or difficulty planning everyday tasks. These problems can affect daily life, safety, and treatment adherence. Existing cognitive tests often require special training or equipment and may not fully reflect how people experience these difficulties in daily life. This study aims to create a simple, patient-reported tool that captures these concerns in an easy and practical way.\n\nThe main questions this study aims to answer are:\n\n1. Can the LiCCoS questionnaire reliably measure cognitive difficulties in adults with liver cirrhosis?\n2. Does the questionnaire correctly reflect differences in cognitive function across levels of liver disease severity?\n3. Do LiCCoS scores relate to results from commonly used cognitive screening tests?\n\nParticipants will be adults aged 18 to 75 years who have a confirmed diagnosis of liver cirrhosis and are attending outpatient clinics. Participation is voluntary.\n\nParticipants will:\n\nProvide basic background information, such as age and medical history\n\nComplete the LiCCoS questionnaire about their thinking and daily mental functioning\n\nComplete standard cognitive screening tests commonly used in clinical care\n\nThis study does not involve any treatment or change in medical care.
