In this recent interview with Sofia Smallstorm, she vouches for brushing your teeth with turmeric powder. I have yet to try this, but will shortly, as I do have a bag of turmeric around. She talked about how counter-intuitive it seems, coz of how for example curry will stain your clothes pretty bad... but alas she raved about how white it leaves your teeth!

Sounds like a good formula may be, mix baking soda & turmeric in an empty, lidded jar so you can easily/thoroughly mix by shaking vigorously, and then just keep this jar in your bathroom. Then at brush time, put a small spoonful/whatever (need to experiment) in your mouth, and then take a small shot of hydrogen peroxide to wet it (swish a bit...). Then brush away! When finished, just chase the BS/Tur/H2O2 "tooth paste" down the hatch with water-- for good health!!

Six Hours of Increased Memory By Adding This to Breakfast




Heather Callaghan
Activist Post

Researchers from Monash Asia Institute at Monash University found that you can spice up your memory and help with diabetic and prediabetic conditions with a tiny amount of a powdery substance that might be in your cabinet as we speak.

This substance can be added to scrambled egg recipes...

Can make porridge and oatmeal pop when something sweet is added.

Mixed into pancake batters.

Sprinkled atop some waffles and blended with maple.

Mixed with leftovers...

Or in the case of this study, placed on plain ol' boring toast.

And of course, it doesn't have to be for breakfast... Have you guessed what it is yet?

Researchers for the study published in the Asia Pacific Journal of Clinical Nutrition, found that adding just one gram (about 1/4 to 1/3 teaspoon) of turmeric to breakfast could help improve the memory of people who are in the very early stages of diabetes and at risk of cognitive impairment.

Cognitive impairment and dementia have been connected to diabetes in the past, so it made sense to test the powers of turmeric on both. Curcumin, which accounts for 3 to 6 per cent of turmeric and has been shown by experimental studies to reduce the risk of dementia. And it is true that black pepper increases the bioavailability of curcumin by a thousand times.

Emeritus Professor Mark Wahlqvist said that early intervention by halting dementia/diabetes or softening its impact can reduce the burden of the aging population's rising cases of diabetes which leaves them predisposed to other disease and disorders.

Wahlqvist recently led a study in Taiwan that tested the working memory of men and women aged 60 or older who had recently been diagnosed with untreated pre-diabetes.

He said:

Working memory is widely thought to be one of the most important mental faculties, critical for cognitive abilities such as planning, problem solving and reasoning.

Assessment of working memory is simple and convenient, but it is also very useful in the appraisal of cognition and in predicting future impairment and dementia.

In the placebo-controlled study, subjects were given one gram (about 1/4 to 1/3 teaspoon) of turmeric with an otherwise nutritionally bland breakfast of white bread. Their working memory was tested before and some hours after the meal.

We found that this modest addition to breakfast improved working memory over six hours in older people with pre-diabetes

Our findings with turmeric are consistent with these observations, insofar as they appear to influence cognitive function where there is disordered energy metabolism and insulin resistance.

Check out more of Wahlqvist's publications here.


***Caution!***

Part of the reason turmeric is known to help with diabetes is the very fact that it can lower blood sugar. This means that if you have hypoglycemia or low blood sugar, thyroid problems that mess with blood sugar, and blood pressure problems you should consult with your preferred healthcare practitioner first. It is also naturally a blood thinner! Turmeric can mess with the effects of those medications as well. See other cautions here.

Turmeric is potent for the ability of such small amounts to create tangible change in the body, including pain relief. Please get yours inexpensively in bulk at the healthfood store, but yes, you can find the spice online too, cheaper in bulk. Look for organic and non-irradiated for best benefits.

Turmeric: A Miracle Medicine?

More than 6,000 articles published within the past two decades have identified novel ways this single neutraceutical or phytonutrient is able to benefit our health. Dr. Andrew Weil has explained: “the therapeutic advantages of turmeric and curcumin are almost too numerous to list.” So would we be right to call turmeric an absolute miracle spice?


With so many suspected health benefits, based on clinical peer journal studies and evidenced based medicine being attributed to turmeric, it should not be surprising why turmeric is being used regularly by millions of people all over the world. In fact, it has been a popular supplement for more than 2,500 years. Health benefits believed to be derived from turmeric may be strongest in India where studies suggest the reason for the lowest rates of certain catastrophic diseases on the planet.



Christian Wilde is an author and researcher who has devoted seven years to exploring early detection and prevention of heart disease for the general public. Becoming aware of (non-cholesterol) related heart disease in his own profile in 1997, he sought to better understand why 50% of all heart attacks were actually happening to people with so-called normal cholesterol.


His preventive book, Hidden Causes of Heart Attack and Stroke explored and confirmed inflammation’s role in complicating heart disease as well as cholesterol. Wilde’s newest book, Miracle Stem Cell Heart Repair, delves into the science of using one’s own stem cells for actually repairing the damaged heart.

-Turmeric is more effective when the whole plant is used

-Christian explains in detail the formula of his turmeric product

Curry Dilates Arteries With One Serving

Posted on:

Did you know that a single culinary serving of spices in the form of curry can dilate your arteries, preventing the cardiovascular harms associated with eating common foods?



While spices are thought of mainly as culinary agents for the aesthetical enhancement of the flavor of food, they are also powerful medicinal agents, and in certain respects may actually mitigate the harms of things we like to eat that may not be as good for us as their pleasurable tastes and textures would have us believe.

A recent study published in Nutrition Journal titled, "A single consumption of curry improved postprandial endothelial function in healthy male subjects: a randomized, controlled crossover trial," brought home exactly this point. Moreover, it reveals that certain culinary formulas, sometimes handed down through countless generations, may have indispensable value for our health. Interestingly, we find this concept echoed in the word recipe itself, whose first recorded use in Mid 16-century French literally means "medical prescription."
