A new study suggests that the risk of developing Alzheimer's Disease can be reduced by regularly drinking fruit juice.The researchers, from Vanderbilt University, say that it is the antioxidants known as polyphenols which account for this effect. Polyphenols are found in the peels and skins of fruit and vegetables, which are often used when processing juice.
The study found that the incidence of Alzheimer's was 76% lower for those who drank juice three or more times a week than for those who drank juice less than once a week. The incidence was 16% lower for those drinking juice once or twice a week.
The research is published in the American Journal of Medicine.
