The SPICE that can SAVE your brain
Let’s pretend for a second that keeping your brain sharp was just like maintaining your car.
Get the oil changed regularly… rotate those tires… and keep those fluids topped off…
Do that and, chances are, your “vintage” ride can last you hundreds of thousands of miles!
Well, friend, that comparison ISN’T as far off as you might think.
That’s because new research has unlocked the therapeutic powers of a floral SPICE that can keep your brain running in tip-top shape for years to come…
Just like a well-maintained car!
It’s not a secret concoction…
Or some hard-to-find formula.
It’s found in the aisles of your grocery store!
Your brain is just two percent of your body weight.
But it guzzles about 20% of your blood, which carries the oxygen it uses for fuel as well as essential minerals and other key nutrients.
And there’s one natural remedy that can help ensure it gets everything it needs to run smoothly.
It’s called curcumin, and it’s a compound found in the spice turmeric that’s already known for ensuring good circulation and blood vessel health.
In a recent study, healthy seniors were given either turmeric oil extract or a placebo, then given a hand-grip test two hours later – a form of exercise that delivers just enough strain to see how well the blood is flowing.
And for the folks given curcumin, it REALLY started flowing – rushing into the brain, delivering crucial oxygen and nutrients.
Compared to the patients given the placebo, the ones given the curcumin had a:
- 42% jump in cerebral oxygenation
- 54% increase in total blood volume
It’s important to note that this isn’t a cure for Alzheimer’s or dementia…
It’s about maintaining good blood flow and increased oxygen delivery are the very foundation for memory and cognition.
Look for turmeric at your local store and curcumin extract at most pharmacies or vitamin stores.
Be sure to talk to your doctor about supplementing and the dosage that’s right for you.
Looking for other ways to help keep your brain sharp? Later today I’ll be sending you a sneak peek at how you can potentially use your PHONE to stay mentally sharp.
Stay tuned!
To a free flowing mind,
