| Drinking more coffee can prevent Alzheimer's disease |
For those who cannot face the day without coffee in the morning, there is good news: a long-term study published in Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience recently showed that drinking more coffee can reduce Alzheimer’s The risk of illness
.
As part of Australian aging imaging, biomarkers and lifestyle research, researchers from Edith Cowan University (ECU) surveyed more than 200 Australians over a decade to determine whether their coffee intake Affect the speed of their cognitive decline
.
The results of the study show that there is a link between coffee and several important markers related to Alzheimer's disease
"We found that those participants without memory impairment who drank a lot of coffee at the beginning of the study had a lower risk of transitioning to mild cognitive impairment, which is usually a precursor to Alzheimer's disease
.
" Lead researcher Dr.
Studies have found that drinking more coffee can have positive effects on certain cognitive functions, especially on executive functions, including planning, self-control, and attention
.
At the same time, higher coffee intake also seems to be related to slowing down the accumulation of amyloid in the brain, which is a key factor in the development of Alzheimer's disease
Although current research cannot determine how many cups of coffee a day will produce beneficial effects
.
But research shows that if you only allow yourself to drink one cup of coffee a day, you'd better drink one more cup
"If you increase the average daily 240 grams of coffee to twice the amount, then 18 months later, cognitive decline may be reduced by 8%, and within the same period, the accumulation of amyloid in the brain will also be reduced by 5%
.
" Gardner said, “The more coffee you drink, the slower your cognitive decline will be and the less your brain consumes
It is understood that in Alzheimer's disease, amyloid aggregates together to form plaques that are harmful to the brain
.
However, this study cannot distinguish between caffeine-containing and decaffeinated coffee, and its preparation method (brewing method, milk or sugar, etc.
)
.
At the same time, the study did not accurately determine which components of coffee seem to have a positive effect on brain health
"Crude caffeine" is a by-product of decaffeinated coffee and has been shown to have a certain preventive effect on memory impairment in mice
.
The other components of coffee, such as caffeol, caffeol, and decanediol-5-hydroxytryptamine, have also been found to affect cognitive impairment in animals in various studies
Nevertheless, Gardner said that the relationship between coffee and brain function is still worthy of further study
.
"This is especially useful for people who are at risk of cognitive decline but who have not yet experienced any symptoms
.
" Gardner said, "We may develop some clear guidelines, and hope that people will be able to follow and produce lasting Influence
