Turmeric contains curcumin which can protect the brain from oxidative damage. Curcumin prevents neuron death, reduces oxidative damage and inflammation in the brain, and may reverse amyloid plaque formation associated with Alzheimer's. While turmeric is tasty, curcumin is not well absorbed so supplements are needed to obtain full benefits from this compound that acts like an anti-inflammatory drug to protect the brain.
