Green tea can improve your cognitive function, in particular the working memory, a new study by researchers at the University of Basel suggests.
The findings could pave the way for promising treatment of cognitive impairments in psychiatric disorders such as dementia, researchers add.
Extracts from green tea enhance the brain's effective connectivity, meaning the influence one area of the brain has over the other. Subjects tested significantly better for working memory tasks after consuming green tea extract.
"Our findings suggest that green tea might increase the short-term synaptic plasticity of the brain," Professor Christoph Beglinger said in a statement.
