DRINKING three to five cups of coffee a day could help to significantly lower the risk of suffering Alzheimer's disease, according to the latest research.
Scientists have discovered a link between regular daily intake of the hot drink and a reduction of up to 20 per cent of the chances of developing dementia.
The report released today (thurs) from the Institute for Scientific Information on Coffee highlights the role nutrition
can play in preserving cognitive function, especially during the
preclinical phase of Alzheimer's before full-blown symptoms of dementia
occur.
It notes that a Mediterranean diet,
consisting of fish, fresh fruit and vegetables, olive oil and red wine,
has already been associated with a reduced risk for development of
Alzheimer's Disease.
