Green Tea May Prevent Dementia, Study Says - FoxNews.com
Drinking green tea regularly could protect the brain against developing Alzheimer's. It could also protect you against other forms of dementia, a group of UK scientists claimed Thursday.
"What was really exciting about this study was that we found when green tea is digested by enzymes in the gut, the resulting chemicals are actually more effective against key triggers of Alzheimer's development than the undigested form of the tea," project leader Dr. Ed Okello said.
"In addition to this, we also found the digested compounds had anti-cancer properties, significantly slowing down the growth of the tumor cells, which we were using in our experiments."
