简要总结
Brief summary template
The goal of this trial is to test the feasibility and efficacy of the Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (the MIND diet) in people living with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Parkinson's disease (PD) and healthy controls. The main question[s] it aims to answer are:
- How feasibile is our educational dietary intervention, which teaches participants with ALS, PD, and healthy controls to eat by the neuroprotective MIND dietary pattern?
- How does the MIND dietary pattern affect the gut microbiome, metabolome, and lipidome in people with a neurodegenerative disease (ALS or PD) and healthy controls?
- Does the MIND diet affect clinical measures of ALS and PD?
- Does the MIND diet affect human biomarkers of systemic inflammation, metabolism, and neurodegeneration?
Participants will:
- Receive a MIND diet cookbook, a folder with educational handouts, and weekly emails with links to educational videos about the MIND diet.
- Complete a food diary, a MIND diet tracker, and a weekly questionnaire about their experience of eating by the MIND diet.
- Collect stool specimens at the beginning, middle, and end of the study.
- Undergo venipuncture at the beginning and end of the study.

- •for Participants with ALS:
- •Meet the El Escorial Criteria for definite, probable, or possible ALS:
- •Definite ALS is defined as presence of upper motor neuron (UMN) and lower motor neuron (LMN) signs in the bulbar region and at 2 of the other spinal regions
- •Probable ALS is defined as presence of UMN and LMN in at least 2 regions with UMN signs rostral to LMN signs; probable ALS supported by laboratory results is defined as presence of UMN in 1 region with electromyographic evidence of LMN involvement in another region
- •Possible ALS is defined as presence of UMN and LMN in 1 region or UMN in 2 or 3 regions (monomelic ALS, progressive bulbar palsy, and primary lateral sclerosis)
