Research show wasabi could improve cognitive function
Wasabi is derived from the underground stem-rhizome of the wasabi plant, native to Japan. Beyond its culinary uses, wasabi has become the focus of scientific research, particularly in a recent study conducted by researchers from Tohoku University in Japan. The study delves into the cognitive effects of 6-MSITC, the primary bioactive compound in wasabi, on older adults aged 60 to 80.
