Current treatments for Parkinson’s disease, like most pharmaceuticals, are associated with serious side effects. But researchers at State Key Laboratory of Brain & Cognitive Science in Beijing have found a safe and promising alternative: green tea.

In a new study published in Biological Psychiatry , researchers investigated the effects of green tea polyphenols in an animal model. They found that polyphenols help to protect the dopamine-producing brain cells that are lost as a result of Parkinson’s disease.

Enjoy the brain-saving benefits of green tea every day. Look for organic green tea, which is higher in powerful phytonutrients and grown without the use of chemical fertilizers or pesticides.

Testimonials

  • Thanks for this article! You have crystallized and defined an issue that has been nagging me for some time. I knew that there were issues with a business I work with, but I just couldn’t clearly define it. Now that I have this information, we can work on a solution. It seems to me that this idea would apply to all aspects of a business and not just customer service.
