Grew a bunch of Italian spicy basil this on a lark. My first green thumb adventure in maybe 20 years.

I can easily see how that would help people with their heads in intimate contact with their colons...

I think I have an allergy to garlic- makes me dizzy, sweating, sick to stomach, shaky, and it takes a day or more to get over the feeling. Even just a tiny amount makes me ill.. a lot of resteraunts use it in many of their dishes too -I love the stuff too but it sure don’t love me.

Sure, it’s where the nuts come from but so what?

Before you start throwing lots of extra basil in your spaghetti sauce or anything else you eat to help stave off dementia, more research is needed — including in humans.

Yep. Loooooong way to go ... about 1% of the U.S. population is newly-diagnosed with alzheimers annually. There are also recent statistical reports that more younger people are getting it. But the scientific community isn't even remotely close. The science community can drive vehicles on Mars, can send a Tesla car into orbit around the sun, but has little more than a nebulously vague clue about neurological disease. One pharma company was recently battling with the FDA to get its drug approved for that disease. Some experts said an FDA approval would be terrible. Then the FDA approved the drug. There's still intense scientific debate about that newly-approved drug's value. The drug's not a cure. Allegedly, it may temporarily or partially relieve one or more symptoms or have little or no impact. Basically, science is a long way from a decent fix for symptoms. And a "cure" is waaaaaay off in the future, maybe decades or centuries away, if even then.
