Cucumin Study Improves Memory & Mood @senseicat

in #food7 years ago

UCLA researchers have proven that curcumin improves memory and mood in mild cases of age related memory loss.

Curcumin is a chemical in curry and gives it it's color.

Cognitive assessments and blood levels were checked consistently throughout the study.

There was a 28% improvement in those receiving curcumin vs. placebo in memory and attention abilities.

Moderate levels of curcumin in the body is considered safe, despite a few people experiencing nausea.

We call it as turmaric and . It is believed to have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and perhaps even anticancer properties.

I actually take Turmeric curcumin and it is wonderful to finally have a conclusive study. It has been challenging to test due to the instability of the chemical.

I have upvoted and resteemed your post. I also started following so I can see more of your work.

Does turmeric come in a vitamin form that you can purchase in stores? I am interested in giving it a try

It is available in some shops/stores. You can either buy whole turmeric pills or an extract. Check e-shops or amazon

Probably even more than that. I like how some fake medie overexaggerate its cancer-fighting properties though. It is not 10,000 times more effective than chemotherapy, or it has not been proven yet.

Curry is a mix of spices from which turmeric also called curcumin is one, and one of its active compounds is called curcumin as the spice itself.

I like preparing tea from curry. Here is a recipe for those interested:
