Original title: The composition of magic taro reduces the risk of old dementia
Recently, a study by Hokkaido University in Japan found that ceramide derived from magic taro can reduce the accumulation of beta-amyloid protein (A beta), thereby reducing the risk of dementia.
accumulation of A-beta in the brain is considered to be one of the causes of Alzheimer's disease, which begins 15 years before the onset of the disease. The ceramide in magic taro is a lipid ingredient commonly used in skin-care foods and beverages. The researchers found that ceramide reduced A-beta concentrations in the cerebral cortical and hippocupine regions of mice, reduced amyloid plaques (old-age spot-like A-beta deposition), and inhibited synaptic dysfunction in the hippocupine region. In behavioral experiments, short-term memory improved in mice.
the study offers hope for older friends, and in the future scientists hope to use magic taro to develop functional foods and new drugs to prevent old-timer.
