Simple Steps to Reduce Alzheimer's Risk

MATTHEW BARBOUR MATTHEW BARBOUR

Posted July 5, 2010

-- DRINK green tea: it protects your memory, a Japanese study has found.

People who drank one cup daily were 37 per cent less likely to suffer agerelated cognitive illnesses. This is because a compound found in the tea -- EGCG -- helps prevent the build-up of plaque on brain cells, which can lead to Alzheimer's.

Scientists are developing a tea with a high concentration of EGCG.

Tea drinkers should steep their tea for at least three minutes -- any less results in lower amounts of EGCG, scientists say.

-- EAT more curry: despite being criticised by healthy-eating fans, this fast food can protect against Alzheimer's.

Having a few curries a week may help prevent the onset of Alzheimer's by a fifth, U.S. researchers have found.

The interaction between the curcumin in the spice turmeric and a form of vitamin D stimulates the immune system to clear the amyloid plaques in the brain, which are linked to memory loss.
