mice fed the green tea compound EGCG had improved learning and memory by improving object recognition and spatial memory.

Bai and his team note that whilst it has been long believed that green tea is good for the memory, only now is there emerging evidence that its chemical properties may impact cellular mechanisms in the brain.
