p1⁄40.051), with those participants with high protein/fibre intakes and 12+ years of education having higher PACC scores as compared to those with <12 years of education and low protein/ fibre intakes. Combining both fibre and protein in one three level variable (01⁄4low fibre/low protein, 11⁄4at least 1 fibre/protein high, and 21⁄4both high fibre and protein) identified a significant association with the PACC score (p1⁄40.007), with those participants in the low group and with <12 years of education performing worse for the PACC score as compared with those in the high group with 12+years of education. Conclusions: This study highlights the importance of adequate protein and fibre intake on cognitive performance in an elderly cognitively normal population.
