Researchers are interested to see how our daily diet and lifestyle impact the risks of developing dementia and other age-related conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Tea was always believed to provide numerous health benefits to humans. It is easily available, cheap, and has little to no side effects at normal consumption levels. The practice is also widely accepted globally, as it has been a part of multiple cultures, both in Asian and Western countries alike. This is to say that if tea drinking can prevent dementia, its uptake and subsequent benefits for the population will be phenomenal (Feng et al., 2015).<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/Dr-Feng-Lei-Tea-Drinking.jpeg\" alt=\"Tea Drinking Improves Brain Efficiency - Dr Feng Lei\" class=\"wp-image-4975 size-full\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/Dr-Feng-Lei-Tea-Drinking.jpeg 960w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/Dr-Feng-Lei-Tea-Drinking-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/Dr-Feng-Lei-Tea-Drinking-768x432.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>Dr Feng Lei &#8211; Principal Investigator &amp; Research Assistant Professor, Department of Psychological Medicine, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, NUS (Photo Credits: <a href=\"https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/news\/drinking-tea-may-improve-brain-health\/\">NUS Medicine<\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n<h1>Past Research on Long-term Tea Drinking<\/h1>\n<p>Long-term tea drinking refers to at least 15 years of regular tea consumption.

So far, there has been no exploration of the effect of tea drinking on system-level brain networks.<\/p>\n<p>To address this gap, researchers at Mind Science Centre embarked on a project to investigate both functional and structural brain networks in two groups of older adults: tea drinking group and non-tea drinking group.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the team focused on changes in the connectivity within the default mode network (DMN) which was previously suggested to be involved in cognitive disease and normal ageing (Li et al., 2019).<\/p>\n<h1>Tea Drinking Improves Cognitive Measures<\/h1>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/08-Tea-Drinking_Results1.png\" alt=\"tea drinking research improves block design test cognitive measure\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4965 size-full\" width=\"6217\" height=\"4784\" srcset=\"https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/08-Tea-Drinking_Results1.png 6217w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/08-Tea-Drinking_Results1-300x231.png 300w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/08-Tea-Drinking_Results1-1024x788.png 1024w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/08-Tea-Drinking_Results1-768x591.png 768w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/08-Tea-Drinking_Results1-1536x1182.png 1536w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/08-Tea-Drinking_Results1-2048x1576.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 6217px) 100vw, 6217px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In our study, we compared the neuropsychological and cognitive measures of the tea drinking and non-tea drinking group. A significant difference was found in one out of 12 measures, namely the Block Design test from the Wechsler Adults Intelligence Scale (WAIS-III) \u00a0(Li et al., 2019). The Block Design test is commonly used to measure visual-spatial ability, constructional praxis, motor skill, and problem-solving (Joung et al., 2021).<\/p>\n<h1>Habitual Tea Drinking Modulates Brain Efficiency<\/h1>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/08-Tea-Drinking_Results2.png\" alt=\"tea drinking improves functional connectivity brain efficiency\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4966 size-full\" width=\"9000\" height=\"5000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/08-Tea-Drinking_Results2.png 9000w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/08-Tea-Drinking_Results2-300x167.png 300w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/08-Tea-Drinking_Results2-1024x569.png 1024w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/08-Tea-Drinking_Results2-768x427.png 768w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/08-Tea-Drinking_Results2-1536x853.png 1536w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/08-Tea-Drinking_Results2-2048x1138.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 9000px) 100vw, 9000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">Above improvements in cognitive scores, exploration of strengths of connections within the default mode network identified consistently increased strength of functional connectivity. As shown in figure A above, eleven functional connections exhibited a significant enhancement in strength in the tea drinking group.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">Contrastingly, both increased and decreased strengths were observed in structural connectivity. The number of structural connections significantly increased was comparable to those significantly decreased.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">All these findings suggest that there is an association between tea drinking and alterations in connective strength. This is notable as a brain with improved connection strengths experiences milder disruptions in connectivity. This results in higher efficiency for communications and information exchange between regions. In other words, habitual tea drinking is linked with improvements in our brain\u2019s information processing capability (Li et al., 2019).<\/span><\/p>\n<h1>Learn more about tea drinking: MAELab Virtual Tour<\/h1>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/Screenshot-2022-08-31-at-2.04.29-PM.png\" alt=\"maelab virtual tour tea drinking benefits cognitive health\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4967 size-full\" width=\"3024\" height=\"1664\" srcset=\"https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/Screenshot-2022-08-31-at-2.04.29-PM.png 3024w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/Screenshot-2022-08-31-at-2.04.29-PM-300x165.png 300w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/Screenshot-2022-08-31-at-2.04.29-PM-1024x563.png 1024w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/Screenshot-2022-08-31-at-2.04.29-PM-768x423.png 768w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/Screenshot-2022-08-31-at-2.04.29-PM-1536x845.png 1536w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/nmsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/08\/Screenshot-2022-08-31-at-2.04.29-PM-2048x1127.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3024px) 100vw, 3024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Our research on tea drinking was curated into an art exhibition titled \u201cArts, Mindfulness &amp; the Ageing Brain\u201d, showcased at MAELab (Mind Art Experiential Lab).<\/p>\n<p>MAELab is an innovative space for discovery of creative and integrative interventions through art, mindfulness, and transdisciplinary research to promote mental wellness and enhance quality of mind.<\/p>\n<p>Click here to journey through <a href=\"https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/MAELab-Vtour\/\">our virtual tour<\/a>!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h1>References<\/h1>\n<p>Feng, L., Chong, M.
