A study in Great Britain suggests drinking tea may help protect against Alzheimers:
“Scientists at Newcastle University in England said their research shows that a regular “cuppa” could slow development of the affliction that fogs the memory of otherwise healthy people.
“Although there is no cure for Alzheimer’s, tea could potentially be another weapon in the armoury which is used to treat this disease and slow down its development,” lead researcher Ed Okello said.
They found that both green and black tea inhibited the activity of enzymes associated with the development of Alzheimer’s disease, but that coffee had no significant effect.”
DAAN has an excellent source of teas, including green tea, jasmine tea, Fujian black tea, and Oolong tea.
