Which Teas Are Best for Brain Health?
Green teas are among the most beneficial for brain health, but there are others as well. The polyphenols found in green tea are powerful antioxidants that work to help prevent cell damage. An important antioxidant called EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate) is one of the main reasons why green tea has so many medicinal properties. If you want to enhance your brainpower, consider using green tea (including matcha green tea).
In a 2019 study conducted at the University of Singapore, the researchers found “the first evidence of the positive contribution of tea drinking to brain structure and suggest a protective effect on age-related brain changes.” The study included individuals who drank green, black and oolong teas.
