Good News for today

Coffee could be the next treatment for Alzheimers....
Dr Gary Arendash, an American neuroscientist, claims to have uncovered evidence that caffeine not only helps to stave off the disease but can treat it.

A key aspect of Alzheimer's is sticky clumps of an abnormal protein in the brain called beta amyloid plaques.
Mice with a rodent equivalent of the disease showed a 50 per cent reduction in levels of amyloid protein in their brains after the scientists added caffeine to their drinking water.


Here in the Philippines, they often promote coffee for it's health benefits.
