A research team from Newcastle University found that drinking regular cups of green and black tea may improve your memory by inhibiting the activity of key enzymes in the brain that are associated with memory.
It was found that both green and black tea inhibited the activity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) enzyme. But green tea went a step further, because it obstructed the activity of beta-secretase in the brain which is associated with Alzheimer’s disease. It was also found to have continued inhibitive effect for a week, whereas black tea’s enzyme-inhibiting properties lasted for only one day.
The researchers hope that their findings may help in developing an effective treatment for Alzheimer’s Disease. Although there is no total cure for Alzheimer’s, it is possible to slow the development of the disease. Researchers feel that tea may the same effect as drugs specifically designed to combat the condition.
