Does Coffee Help Prevent Dementia?
Can having quality coffee daily reduce our risk of developing Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia? There is evidence that points to this being probable.
Chlorogenic acids (CGAs) are naturally abundant polpyphenol compounds in both caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee. In vitro studies indicate that CGAs have powerful antioxidant properties that have protective effects on nerve cell health and longevity.
In vivo studies have found that a metabolic of CGA called caffeic acid improves learning and memory in mice and rats.
