Participants will be recruited at the Neurology Units of Hospital Universitario Virgen del Rocío, Hospital Universitario Reina Sofía and Hospital Universitario de Valme.\n\nStudy oils. High-purity crystalline oleanolic acid (\\>95%) will be obtained from olive leaves following a procedure developed by the research team (Spanish Patent ES2160553) and used to prepare an oleanolic acid-enriched olive oil (600 mg\u002Fkg) according to European Patent EP18382510. A commercial olive oil 0.4° will serve as the control oil, as it has the same fatty acid composition as the other oils but a very low content of minor bioactive components. Pomace olive oil, which naturally contains oleanolic acid and erythrodiol, will be purchased from local markets. Oil composition will be verified by gas chromatography and differential scanning calorimetry before the intervention begins.\n\nRandomization and blinding. Allocation will follow computer-generated random numbers prepared by the trial coordinator. Participants, clinical and nutritional research staff, and the neuropsychologists scoring the cognitive assessments will be blinded to group assignment.\n\nSample size. Thirty-four participants per arm are required for 90% power to detect a 10% reduction in dementia incidence in the functional oil arms compared with a 25% incidence in the control arm over 12 months (alpha 0.05). Allowing for up to 15% attrition in a long-term dietary intervention, the target is 40 participants per arm (120 in total).\n\nIntervention and follow-up. Participants will consume 55 mL\u002Fday of the assigned oil, preferably raw and distributed across the three main meals, for 12 months. Adherence will be assessed with the self-reported Haynes-Sackett compliance test and by return of empty bottles, methods previously used by this team in the PREDIABOLE and OLTRAD trials. Participants and their caregivers will receive general healthy-eating guidance throughout the study.\n\nAssessments. Evaluations will be performed at baseline and after 6 and 12 months, and will include a comprehensive neuropsychological battery, clinical examination, anthropometry and body composition by bioimpedance, dietary intake and diet quality questionnaires, and fasting blood and urine sampling. Serum concentrations of oleanolic acid and erythrodiol will be measured by HPLC-MS to verify exposure.\n\nMechanistic analyses. Beyond the clinical endpoints, the trial will examine circulating markers of lipid and glucose metabolism, oxidative stress and inflammation, and advanced glycation end product metabolism, together with the expression of related genes in peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Blood-based markers of Alzheimer's disease pathology (p-tau 217, neurofilament light chain, glial fibrillary acidic protein, and the amyloid beta 42\u002F40 ratio) will be quantified at baseline and 12 months.\n\nData will be managed in REDCap and stored in pseudonymized form in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation.",[65,71,76],{"label":66,"type":67,"description":68,"interventionNames":69},"OA-enriched Olive Oil","EXPERIMENTAL","Participants will consume 55 mL\u002Fday of olive oil enriched with oleanolic acid (600 mg\u002Fkg) for 12 months, preferably raw and distributed across the three main meals.",[70],"Dietary Supplement: Oleanolic acid-enriched olive oil",{"label":72,"type":67,"description":73,"interventionNames":74},"Pomace Olive Oil","Participants will consume 55 mL\u002Fday of commercial pomace olive oil, which naturally contains oleanolic acid (180 mg\u002Fkg) and erythrodiol (670 mg\u002Fkg), for 12 months, preferably raw and distributed across the three main meals.",[75],"Dietary Supplement: Pomace olive oil",{"label":77,"type":78,"description":79,"interventionNames":80},"Control Olive Oil","PLACEBO_COMPARATOR","Participants will consume 55 mL\u002Fday of commercial olive oil 0.4°, which has the same fatty acid composition but a very low content of minor bioactive components, for 12 months, preferably raw and distributed across the three main meals.",[81],"Dietary Supplement: Commercial olive oil 0.4 degrees",[83,88,92],{"type":84,"name":85,"description":86,"armGroupLabels":87,"otherNames":46},"DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT","Oleanolic acid-enriched olive oil","Olive oil enriched with oleanolic acid (600 mg\u002Fkg), 55 mL\u002Fday for 12 months, consumed preferably raw and distributed across the three main meals.",[66],{"type":84,"name":89,"description":90,"armGroupLabels":91,"otherNames":46},"Pomace olive oil","Commercial pomace olive oil, naturally containing oleanolic acid (180 mg\u002Fkg) and erythrodiol (670 mg\u002Fkg), 55 mL\u002Fday for 12 months, consumed preferably raw and distributed across the three main meals.",[72],{"type":84,"name":93,"description":94,"armGroupLabels":95,"otherNames":46},"Commercial olive oil 0.4 degrees","Commercial olive oil 0.4°, with the same fatty acid composition but a very low content of minor bioactive components, 55 mL\u002Fday for 12 months, consumed preferably raw and distributed across the three main meals.",[77],[97],{"name":98,"role":99,"phone":100,"phoneExt":46,"email":101},"Elena M Yubero-Serrano, PhD.","CONTACT","+34687848695","elena.yubero@ig.csic.es",[103],{"facility":104,"status":46,"city":105,"state":46,"zip":106,"country":107,"countryCode":108,"cosmosGeoPoint":109,"geoPoint":114,"contacts":115},"Instituto de la Grasa, CSIC","Seville","41013","Spain","ES",{"type":110,"coordinates":111},"Point",[112,113],-5.97317,37.38283,{"lat":113,"lon":112},[116],{"name":98,"role":99,"phone":100,"phoneExt":46,"email":101},{"type":118,"investigatorFullName":119,"investigatorTitle":120,"investigatorAffiliation":121,"oldNameTitle":46,"oldOrganization":46},"PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR","Elena M.

People in the early (\"prodromal\") stage have memory complaints but are still independent in daily life. At present there is no treatment that prevents this stage from progressing to dementia.\n\nOlive oil contains two natural compounds, oleanolic acid and erythrodiol. Earlier work by this research team suggests that these compounds may reduce inflammation and oxidative stress and may improve the way the body handles sugars and fats, processes that are also altered in Alzheimer's disease.\n\nThis study will test whether consuming olive oils that contain these compounds delays the progression from prodromal Alzheimer's disease to dementia.\n\nA total of 120 adults aged 50 to 80 years with prodromal Alzheimer's disease will take part at three public hospitals in southern Spain. Participants will be assigned by chance to one of three groups and will consume 55 mL per day of one of three oils for 12 months: olive oil enriched with oleanolic acid, pomace olive oil (which naturally contains both compounds), or a standard commercial olive oil with very low levels of these compounds. Neither the participants nor the staff assessing them will know which oil each person is receiving.\n\nParticipants will attend study visits at the start of the study and after 6 and 12 months.
