Answer:

E. besides possibly preventing or inhibiting.

Step-by-step explanation:

Green tea, derived from the Camellia sinensis plant, is inexpensive and affordable for most of the population, with a high content of flavonoids. The main one, epigallocatechin-3-gallate, has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anticancer, antidiabetic and antihypertensive effect. Based on these properties, many research groups have conducted scientific research to test the effects of short-term green tea consumption on the memory of mice with heart disease and stroke and stroke risk. The conclusion of this research is that tea of this plant has a psychoactive effect on these diseases, besides possibly preventing or inhibiting these diseases.
