#EGCG

A lab study from the University of California, Irvine reports that a simple combination of nicotinamide (a form of vitamin B3) and EGCG, the antioxidant in green tea, restored “youthful” energy balance in aging mouse neurons and helped clear Alzheimer’s‑linked protein clumps within 16–24 hours. The work, published in the journal GeroScience, suggests that some aspects of brain cell aging may be surprisingly reversible — at least in a dish — but experts caution that the findings have not yet been tested in living animals or people, and that dosing, delivery and safety remain open questions (GeroScience, Springer; PubMed; UC Irvine news; StudyFinds summary).
