So this is a news article about a presentation at a conference, and the research in the presentation hasn't been published yet.

The conference was Nutrition 2023 in Boston, held by the American Society for Nutrition:

The presentation was by Anne-Julie Tessier, a Research Fellow at the Harvard School of Public Health:

The presentation was part of the Postdoctoral Research Award Competition on Friday between 10:00 am and 11:30 am. The winner is not yet listed.

Here is the article where I found the information:
https://www.msn.com/en-ca/health/nutrition/a-way-to-reduce-risk-of-dementia-study-suggests-swapping-margarine-for-olive-oil/ar-AA1ej4iY?ocid=msedgntp&cvid=65fb2f2f9f974a139390243268ce6259&ei=7

These three quotes will give you the gist:

"Comparing olive oil enthusiasts to those who rarely used it, the researchers discovered that those consuming more than half a tablespoon of olive oil daily had a 28% reduced risk of dementia-related mortality."

"While olive oil's positive impact on cardiovascular health has been previously observed, Tessier's team found that improved cardiovascular health did not entirely explain the link between olive oil and a lower risk of dementia in the study participants."

"However, the study does not offer a definitive explanation for the "why" or the "how" behind the observed effects."

So, early days, and I don't know about you, but I find that olive oil drips off my toast, however cooking and salads are less edible stress.
