Ordinary Tea Grows Brain Cells

By Jack Taylor Posted December 20, 2016

For most of us, aging turns our focus to our bodies.

Let’s face it: Who doesn’t want to look and feel young?

So we eat right, drink hydrogen water, exercise regularly and try just about anything that will help our bodies beat back the years.

The only problem is we aren’t focusing on another key component — our brains.

While all of the aforementioned things could help keep your brain firing on all cylinders, research shows there’s an all-natural solution that’s scientifically proven to keep your memory sharp as a tack and even help you grow new brain cells.

So what is this miracle solution?

Green tea.

A recent study found that green tea extract has a powerful impact on the human brain — especially the memory.

For the study, healthy male participants were given soft drinks containing green tea extract. After consuming the drinks, the volunteers had to solve working memory tasks. During the task-solving process, researchers analyzed the participants’ brain functions with MRIs.

And what they found was amazing…

The green tea increased connectivity between two very important parts of the brain, the parietal cortex and frontal cortex, which helps different parts of the brain communicate with each other. The participants also performed significantly better on working memory tasks after drinking the green tea extract.

But the good news doesn’t stop there.

Another study found that green tea can actually help mice grow new brain cells in the hippocampus. These cells can help with memory and spatial learning — in other words, they help you keep your memories and make new ones.

Experts believe a substance called EGCG, or epigallocatechin-3-gallate, a compound found in green tea, is a powerful antioxidant and thought to be the catalyst for the brain cell growth.

This means by simply enjoying a green tea beverage or taking an EGCG extract, you could be on your way to clearer thoughts and a better memory.

You can purchase many different types and flavors of green tea or green tea extract supplements from natural health stores and online retailers. Any will do the trick as long as they have an organic certification.
