Greater consumption of vegetables was associated with slower rate of cognitive decline over 6 years in this large community-based population of older persons. The decrease in rate for persons who consumed greater than two vegetable servings per day was equivalent to about 5 years of younger age. Of the different types of vegetables, green leafy vegetables had the strongest association. Fruit consumption was not associated with cognitive change.
