Compounds found in carrots reverse Alzheimer’s-like symptoms

Celebrate International Carrot Day with findings that suggest that components contained in carrots might offer protection against dementia in people.

There’s something to celebrate on International Carrot Day with findings that suggest that components contained in carrots might offer protection against dementia in people.

A diet containing compounds found in green tea and carrots reversed Alzheimer’s-like symptoms in mice genetically programmed to develop the disease, University of Southern California (USC) researchers say.

Researchers emphasise that the study, published in the Journal of Biological Chemistry, was in mice, and many mouse discoveries never translate into human treatments. Nevertheless, the findings lend credence to the idea that certain readily available, plant-based supplements might offer protection against dementia in humans.
