Demencija je progresivna bolest koja dovodi do gubitka mentalnih sposobnosti, što rezultira promjenom memorije, te gubitka socijalnih sposobnosti. Demencija nastaje zbog stanja koja izazivaju promjenu mišljenja, pamćenje, zaključivanje i govor. Demencija je postala sve učestalija, a može se otkriti već u srednjim godinama iako je u starosti mnogo češća. Pozitivna veza između ishrane i nastanka mentalnih poremećaja ogleda se i u jakoj korelaciji između unosa rafinisanog šećera i smanjenja stava svijesti oboljelih od šizofrenije i nastanka depresije. Mentalne promjene u toku starenja i postepeno odvajanje od aktivnog društvenog života, obično se emotivno odražavaju u prvoj fazi starenja bjekstvom u hranu, a u drugoj fazi poslije 75. godine apatijom, kada i hrana gubi svoju privlačnost. Demencije predstavljaju jedan od najznačajnijih savremenih javnozdravstvenih problema. Dugotrajan nutritivni deficit u ishrani povezuje se sa depresivnim raspoloženjem, anksioznošću i kongnitivnim propadanjem.
