Did you Remember to Worry About your Memory? Did you know that, in her 60s, a womans estimated risk for developing Alzheimers is 1 in 6? For breast cancer it is 1 in 11. Five million Americans have Alzheimer’s, and 1 in 3 seniors dies with Alzheimer’s or some other form of severe cognitive decline? Maybe it is time to stop worrying and start doing something: something that can make a big difference in your brain health- and your overall wellbeing. I am not one who believes that health comes from a bottle; whether that is a bottle of medicine or a bottle of vitamins. I am an advocate for a well-rounded, healthy diet, attitude and lifestyle! That said, I do want to tell you about curcumin, because it is just too good to ignore. Curcumin is the most active constituent of turmeric, a member of the ginger family that is responsible for the yellow color of Indian curry and American mustard. Interestingly, population studies have shown that elderly villagers in India appear to have the lowest rate of Alzheimers disease in the world. They also eat turmeric with almost every meal. Maybe it is time to start using turmeric liberally when cooking or possibly supplementing with a curcumin extract!
