Ginger, Curry, and Other Spices
A recent study found that one half-teaspoon daily of antioxidant-rich herbs and spices -- fresh or dried oregano, sage, peppermint, thyme, clove, allspice, and cinnamon -- can help prevent chronic disease. Ginger, in particular, has high antioxidant power and anti-inflammatory properties. But the "hottest" spice these days is curcumin, a component of turmeric and yellow curry, which animal studies suggest may reduce the risk of Alzheimer's. "Indians who eat a lot of curry blend have much lower rates of Alzheimer's, but at this point researchers don't know yet if that's what makes the difference," says Greg M. Cole, PhD, of the UCLA Alzheimer's Disease Research Center.


I love the taste of curry and ginger. I think I will try to use more of this stuff, and if it helps, super.

Thrift

To stay Healthy

Two of my granddaughters, Anabelle and Emma Rose. Are there better reasons to stay healthy. I am fighting a battle that is at least average for my age. Things start to not work quite right. They start to slow down. Eating is fun. Always has been. Now it's not just eating to worry about but how much and what. Exercise is the only 8 letter 4 letter word I know of. Now it isn't whether or not, but how much. Vitamins and minerals are not just words any more but life-saving needs, especially in food. Gray hair is, thankfully, not a problem. An aching back is. Running? Not for years. There is no way to move this body gracefully. And I am not going to wear skimpy clothes so I don't scare anyone. OK. Here I am. Nowhere near where I thought I would be in this life. But in most ways, I am in a much better place than I deserve. Had I abused this body much more I wouldn't be here. Why is it so hard to change?
