Green tea is well-known for helping induce a calm, alert mental state, but did you know it could also deliver cognitive support? Scientists believe this is due to the unique nutritional aspects of green tea, including high levels of the amino acid Theanine. Who would have thought you get cognitive support in green tea!

This is great news for anyone who would like an extra boost to be at their best every day. Now, research shows that green tea’s mental benefits extend far beyond a daily stimulant. In fact, the compounds in green tea can have a profound impact on cognitive function as we age.

Cognitive Support in Green Tea

One study looked at how a history of green tea consumption affects cognitive function in people aged seventy or older. The amount of green tea regularly consumed was compared to their results on tests that measure cognitive function.

Not only was cognitive impairment lower with green tea intake, but the effect was greater when more tea was consumed. A regular green tea habit can help you stay mentally sharp as the years go by.

Powerful Benefits. Today!

Even more exciting is that the benefits of green tea aren’t just preventative. If you or someone you love is already experiencing cognitive decline, it’s not too late to benefit from green tea.

A recent study tested how nursing home residents’ cognitive function test results changed after three months of consuming green tea powder every day. The results showed a significant improvement in cognitive skills with daily green tea powder intake.

Even once cognitive decline begins, the daily use of green tea can supply significant cognitive support.

“As you may know, I like to keep you abreast of any opportunities to find a good, caring and responsible home health aide. Recently, a congregant needed a daily person for 3 weeks. When I went to visit, she raved about the care she was getting from this service. It is: David York Agency in Brooklyn. Ask for Anita Kamiel. 718-376-7755. ”

L BHolliswood, N.Y.

“To Marty, Pam, Natalie and the amazing aides that work for David York Agency – I would like to express appreciation to all of you for the care you gave my mom (and to me as the primary caregiver). You have all been so professional and kind. There were so many annoying and aggravating situations that came up and throughout you all stayed calm and supportive. I am sure I will not get the same attention and support anywhere else. Continue your excellent work!! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. ”

C WBrooklyn, N.Y.

“I am glad I called your agency and thankful that you chose both excellent aides to assist me.”

M KNew York, N.Y.

“This is a letter thanking you for providing wonderful services for my mother. Both D.B. (aide) and C.B. (aide) did a wonderful job in the time they took care of my mother.”

J TStaten Island, N.Y.

“I am grateful to you for sending 2 wonderful people to take care of my mother. I would give M. (aide) and G. (aide) the highest of recommendations. In fact, I have given the name of your agency to 2 different parties who are in need of help in caring for an older person. It was my pleasure dealing with such an understanding individual at your agency.”

G ICedarhurst, N.Y.

“Thank you for everything. You were very helpful in getting us reliable, friendly assistance. My family and I thank you deeply.”

M K FStaten Island, N.Y.

“My family and I wish to express our appreciation to your agency for the courteous and efficient manner in which assistance was given. We particularly would like to single out H.G. (aide) for the extraordinary care she provided. Not only did she attend to my mother’s physical needs in an excellent manner (hygiene, meals, etc.), but she gave her loving attention during a very difficult period. She is a warm, caring, highly intelligent woman and a fine credit to your agency.”

H CRockaway Park, N.Y.

“I just wish to express how pleased we all have been with the service you have provided.” –

E TWest Hempstead, N.Y.

“I am writing to commend your employee, B.S. (aide), for the excellent care she gave my mother. I must admit I had misgiving about allowing a total stranger to live in our home, but I had no choice. Mother was no longer able to care for herself and it was impossible for me to stay at home 24 hours a day to care for her. So a “live-in” was the only answer. B.S. was clearly the best thing that happened in a very sad, trying situation. She was a great comfort, and I hope to be able to keep up with her as a personal friend from now on. She is superb and definitely ‘one of a kind’.”

N BQueens Village, N.Y.
