This is the capital of a study from the Krembil Brain Institute. One researcher, Donald Weaver noted that coffee consumption is associated with a reduced risk of developing Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. "We want to investigate why this can occur, which components are involved and how they affect age-related cognitive diseases" Weaver said, citing Medical News Today.

However, it is not caffeine that plays a role in increasing the cognitive abilities of the brain. Citing the journal Frontiers in Neuroscience, that ability is related to components released during the roasting process of raw coffee beans. Researchers found a component called phenylindanes which acts to protect the brain. This component is formed when coffee enters the roasting stage and gives a bitter taste of coffee.

This component can inhibit the incorporation of protein tau, which is very much in neurons in the central nervous system, and beta-amyloid. Both tau and beta-amyloid proteins are known to have toxic properties. If it is formed excessively in the brain, the condition of a decrease in nerve function will occur and in the end will encourage the arrival of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.
