Official title: Clinical Evaluation of an Specific Diet for People With Dementia Disease

The most common symptoms associated to senile dementia disease are confusion about schedules, hyperactivity... In this sense, these patients have frequently poor nutrition, resulting in malnutrition problems or malnutrition high risk.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to assess if the daily intake of a specific nutritional supplement versus a non specific supplement one is related to malnutrition or malnutrition risk reduction and contributes to an improvement in cognitive and functional parameters in patients with senile dementia.

Being tested
