Love tea, the brain grows old slowly.

Original title: love to drink tea, the brain is old slowly
tea is a good drink to dehydration, refreshing, but the health benefits of drinking tea is much more than that. A small study by the Department of Psychiatry at the National University of Singapore's Yang Yiling School of Medicine has found that regular tea drinking can improve brain connectivity and slow brain aging.
To determine whether drinking tea contributed to more effective communication lines in the brain, the researchers surveyed 36 middle-aged and older people over the age of 60, 15 of whom drank tea regularly and 21 who drank little or no tea. Participants provided detailed information on their overall health, emotional psychology, lifestyle, etc., and received MRI scans and 12 neuropsycological function tests and cognitive function measurements.
researchers paid particular attention to the connectivity of the default mode neural network (DMN). DMN is a large network that connects multiple brain regions, and its important roles include self-awareness, the ability to condescension, moral reasoning, and imagining the future. After comparing the test results of two groups of people, the researchers found that the overall network of tea drinkers' brains was better, with more efficient functional and structural connections. Information processing can be performed more efficiently when connections between brain regions reflect stronger structured characteristics. The findings are published in the Journal of Aging.
the results are the first to demonstrate the positive effects of drinking tea on brain structure, suggesting that regular tea drinking plays a role in slowing the aging of brain tissue.
