Coffee strengthens memory
After a cup of coffee or tea , many people feel revitalized , ready to face the burden of the day .
But a study finds that the effects are very good memory. To discover if any , neurobiologjisë professor at the University of California at Irvine , Mike Yassa and his colleagues asked a group of people to learn something new and then gave a caffeine amount .
" Upon learning something new , it takes time for the memory to be activated and what was taught to remember . During the 24 hours before going on most of forgetfulness . By interfering with caffeine , we asked to see if I can sit pace of forgetfulness during this period . "
Jasa and his colleagues gathered a group of 160 worshipers who do not drink beverages with caffeine as part of their study . On the first day , they showed participants pictures of everyday objects and asked if they were at home or outdoors . Participants then took a caffeine tablet , a tablet others without caffeine .
The next day , the researchers showed participants pictures of the other . "When I had to use the memory to respond , found that participants who had received caffeine , they respond correctly to a much higher percentage ." Jasa researcher said that they had received caffeine had a 10-12 % increase in the ability to remember objects . The amount of caffeine that was used in the study is equivalent to a strong cup of coffee or double espresso . He says that the consumption of a large amount of caffeine slightly bring further growth of memory , but also create unease among the participants .
