Health benefits of Turmeric

Turmeric is a plant of the ginger family and its powder is used in curry. Turmeric has lots of health benefits. I sprinkle a little Turmeric powder in most of my food. The bottle of Turmeric (14 gm) as shown above was purchased from a grocery store in Japan and cost less than 200 Yen (S$2).

We cooked sayor lodeh for lunch. It is made up of veggies like cabbage, carrots, turnips, eggs, coconut milk plus turmeric which is a preventive herb against Alzheimer (made the dish yellowish in color). Due to my age, I have to eat more turmeric and coconut milk/juice/oil to prevent myself from the dreadful Alzheimer that caused the death of the famous singer, Glen Campbell, Ronald Regan and Magaret Thatcher just to name a few.
