Guest guest Posted October 5, 2007 Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 EGCG from Green Tea protects brain cells from Alzheimer’s plaque Alzheimer’s disease is the most common neurodegenerative disease caused by an accumulation of Abeta plaque deposits in the brain. Evidence is accumulating that Green Tea antioxidants can protect the brain cells from the toxic effect of Abeta. In this study part of the mechanism of how Green Tea protects our brain cells was discovered. Treating brain cells with EGCG reduced the level of Abeta that accumulated in the cells. It does this by affecting genes and enzymes in a variety of highly technical ways. The study is published in the journal Neurobiology of Aging.
