Drinking coffee may reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease

According to the Daily Mail of November 27, drinking three to five cups of coffee a day can help reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease. But some experts say there is no concrete evidence to support this conclusion.

Many people start their day with an espresso, and recent studies have shown that drinking coffee can also prevent Alzheimer's. Some scientists say that three to five cups of coffee a day can help reduce the incidence of Alzheimer's disease. However, some experts from the British Alzheimer's Disease Research Foundation (Alzheimer's Research UK) say more clinical trials are needed to confirm this conclusion.

Espresso (illycaffe), Nestl é (Nestl é) and Dinner E? A report from the Coffee Science Institute co-founded by Master DE Master Blenders shows that nutrition is important in preventing memory decline in the early stage of Alzheimer's disease.

According to the World Health Organization (World Health Organisation), the number of people suffering from Alzheimer's disease worldwide will double by 2050. The latest report also shows the role of a healthy diet in preventing the disease. For example, the Mediterranean diet, which includes fish, fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as olive oil and red wine, plays a role in reducing the incidence of Alzheimer's disease because foods contain large amounts of polyphenols. Polyphenols are also found in coffee. In addition, both polyphenols and caffeine help ease inflammation and slow the aging of memory cells in the brain.

The report that coffee helps reduce the incidence of Alzheimer's disease was officially presented at the annual European Congress of Alzheimer's (Alzheimer's Europe Annual Congress) in Glasgow. Iva Holmerova, vice president of the EU Alzheimer's Association (Alzheimer Europe), said: "the results in the report are gratifying. Cognitive decline is a feature of aging, but a reasonable diet and healthy living habits will play a role in alleviating cognitive degradation. "

Dr. Arfram Ikram of Eras University Medical Center (Erasmus Medical Centre Rotterdam) in Rotterdam expressed a similar view at the seminar, saying that drinking coffee can help reduce the incidence of Alzheimer's disease. But Dr Simon Ridley of the Alzheimer's Research Foundation in the UK believes that the evidence is not sufficient and that more clinical trials are needed to confirm the relationship between the two. What we can do now is to develop good eating habits, exercise regularly, don't smoke, control weight and maintain normal blood pressure. Jess? of the Alzheimer's Association (Alzheimer's Society). Jess Smith agrees that there is no conclusive evidence for this conclusion. John? of neurology at UCL (University College London). Dr. John Hardy also said: "such reports require more retesting and evaluation."

Globally, 26 million people over 65 suffer from Alzheimer's disease. In the UK alone, 850000 people suffer from Alzheimer's, 60 per cent of whom have Alzheimer's disease. This grim reality requires us to find more effective prevention and control methods to reduce people's morbidity.
