title: [Medical nutrition in Alzheimer's: the trials].
abstract: We describe the small but statistically significant effects of the medical nutrition diet 'Souvenaid' on memory in early Alzheimer's disease in two published randomised clinical trials. We specifically discuss the design and statistical approach, which were predefined and meet current standards in the field. Further research is needed to substantiate the long term effects and learn more about the mode of action of Souvenaid.
