Alzheimer's Disease.

Growing evidence suggests a potential role for theanine in averting the most dreaded cause of memory loss—Alzheimer’s disease. Recent data have shown that theanine—along with other phytochemicals derived from green tea—promotes the activity of an enzyme that breaks down the harmful beta-amyloid protein, which is commonly found in the brains of Alzheimer’s patients. This promising preliminary study suggests that theanine could offer crucial protection against the brain changes that precede Alzheimer’s disease.
