Caffeine in tea, unlike that found in coffee contains natural protein teanina on side effects of caffeine, such as high blood pressure, headaches and fatigue, according to scientists.
Damage brain cells, caused by a combination of loss of nerve cells, the influence of genes, a mild stroke, and increased levels of protein damage, sometimes causing patients with dementia (a disease of cognitive dysfunction in the brain from damage due to aging or other serious illness), the report said.
The team of scientists is studying the habits of drinking tea of 2,501 Chinese people aged 55 and above from September 2003 to December 2005.
