Turmeric, we all know it:it's the spice that gives curry its yellow color, the one that colors our dishes and spice them up and whose anti-cancer virtues are praised... But a recent American study has found it even more useful. other powers, this time on well-being and memory. The scientists asked 40 participants between the ages of 50 and 90 to consume 90 mg of turmeric twice a day for a year and a half. Half took real turmeric, while the other half took a trial with a “placebo” turmeric. Results ? People who ingested the real turmeric noticed that their memory and mood improved dramatically!
The observation is breathtaking:the memory of the people questioned has very clearly improved, since it has increased by 28% in a year and a half... and this, only by increasing the consumption of turmeric! In addition to this achievement, people felt a real change in their mood:they generally felt happier than before! This recipe for success comes from India, which is the country where citizens have the best cognitive performance and are the least affected by Alzheimer's disease. Coincidence? Certainly not ! It really doesn't take much to be happy...
In any case, if we were still looking for a reason to adopt it in our diet, it is all found!
