Love that Curry

Turns out it loves me back:

Curcumin is an inexpensive dietary supplement that offers powerful protection for aging brains. It has been used as a food additive for thousands of years in the East as the active ingredient in turmeric, or yellow curry spice. Recently, curcumin's many benefits are being uncoverd by Western and Eastern gerontologists (scientists and clinicians who study the aging process). Curcumin has many effects when we eat it as a nutritional supplement, but the most important one seems to be that it reduces the buildup of Alzheimer's-related amyloid in our brains as we age.

Tastes great. Wards off Alzheimer's. That's a pretty good combo. Apparently, it does turn your brain yellow, but I can live with that.
