Espresso could save your life someday: new Alzheimer’s research discoveryBy Marc Lallanilla

An espresso martini might save your life someday.
A new study finds that compounds in espresso — including caffeine — could help to prevent the development of Alzheimer’s disease.
Espresso, made from finely ground coffee beans brewed under pressure with hot water, is the basis for lattes, Americanos and other drinks, including the trendy espresso martini.
And “numerous studies report that … coffee consumption exerts a [protective] action against two of the most common neurodegenerative diseases, i.e., Parkinson′s and Alzheimer′s,” the study authors wrote.
So the researchers, working at the University of Verona in Italy, experimented with compounds in espresso to see if any of them could have an impact on the development of Alzheimer’s disease.
