Teas Can Help The Brain

A new study conducted by Dutch researchers in the Netherlands and published in the journal NUTRITIONAL NEUROSCIENCE found that drinking tea could help increase alertness and boost brain power.
The study analyzed the brain activity of 44 participants. They studied key chemicals typically found in tea including, an amino acid called L-theanine, and caffeine. The researchers analyzed the effect of these chemicals on the brain.
The team found that the natural ingredients significantly enhanced accuracy across several thinking tasks. They also found that people who drink tea were less tired and more alert compared to those who did not drink tea. Finally, the researchers found that the combination of L-theanine and caffeine helps increase your attention on demanding cognitive tasks.
It is noted that drinking only one cup of tea can boost your brain-power and enhance your focus and attention.
If you are interested in increasing your brain function and alertness, you might want to consider adding tea to your diet.


Enjoy your day.
