Previous studies have shown that tea intake is beneficial to human health, and the positive effects include mood improvement and cardiovascular disease prevention. Another study led by Asst Prof Feng, which was published in 2017, showed that daily consumption of tea can reduce the risk of cognitive decline in older people by 50 per cent. "We have shown in our previous studies that tea drinkers had better cognitive function as compared to non-tea drinkers.

"Our current results relating to brain network indirectly support our previous findings by showing that the positive effects of regular tea drinking are the result of improved brain organisation brought about by preventing disruption to interregional connections," he said. The research, carried out with collaborators from the University of Essex and the University of Cambridge, was published in scientific journal Aging on Jun 14.

According to the press release, the next step in the research is to understand how functions like memory emerge from brain circuits, and the possible interventions to better preserve cognition during the ageing process. Asst Prof Feng and his team plan to examine how tea and its bioactive compounds can affect cognitive decline.
