Is Green Tea a Protective Agent Against Alzheimer’s Disease?

Abstract

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is characterized by the progressive deterioration of cognitive function. This fatal illness, which results in memory loss, is the most common cause of dementia.¹ In 2017, there were approximately 76,000 new Dementia cases in Canada annually, accounting for an AD prevalence of 7.1%.² It is anticipated that these numbers will increase in the near future due to the growth and aging of the Canadian population.²
