British scientists found that regular drinking green tea and black tea help prevent elderly and related memory decline and dementia.
Newcastle University's Medicinal Plant Research Centre Aideao Chairman (Kailo), Ph.D., and colleagues in the "plant therapy research," published an article saying that they found that tea can prevent the synthesis of an enzyme, the enzyme can destroy acetylcholine , and acetylcholine is the transmission of information between brain cells in the middle media.
Although scientists do not fully understand Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis, but the brain of patients with very low levels of acetylcholine it is a fact, the main treatment is medication increase acetylcholine levels. Increased with age in normal memory also decreased with the lower level of acetylcholine. Normal brain acetylcholine will continue to be destroyed, and the chemical substances contained in tea can slow the process.
Black tea and green tea can prevent two of the same enzyme, but also green tea can stop the third enzyme synthesis. Okelo said: "the effectiveness of green tea can be sustained for a week, and the effectiveness of black tea a day can only be sustained. If it is in the role of the human body in the laboratory and can almost, and your low level of acetylcholine, drink five cups a day to 10 good cup of tea.
