So, people without a genetic risk of Alzheimer's those who happen to eat 50g of cheese per day have a 13% to 17% lower risk of Alzheimer's. Similarly with cream.
It also appears to say that eating more cheese provides no additional risk mitigation.
This lay person's opinion is it's probably true that dairy fats are an important contribution to infant brain development and that small amounts probably aid brain health later in life.
However, that's probably true over 28,000 people. Adding cheese to your personal diet will probably do nothing.
