Study suggests Japanese curry effective at staving off dementia
sora news 24 ^

A curry a week helps keep the brain at its peak.

It’s been known for a while now that the blend of spices found in curry can lead to a wide range of health benefits from improved digestion to lower blood pressure. But the question remained whether this was all true for Japanese curry as well.

Although more or less the same food, the differences between Indian and Japanese curry can be quite stark, casting doubt on the latter’s nutritional benefits. A fair comparison might be the difference between Italian and American pizzas, wherein they’re the same basic idea but completely different dining experiences.

Previous studies by House found that Japanese curry can help suppress adverse reactions to air pollution and also prevent hardened arteries, but this latest find might prove the most helpful yet.

It builds on a study conducted Singapore that found a connection between eating curry and healthy cognitive functions.

The study gathered over 2,000 people aged 50 and up, divided into groups based on the frequency they eat curry and whether they’d eaten it that way over a long period (over one year) or short period (under one year).

Each subject was then given a DASC-21 dementia risk assessment and their relative scores were compared. Those who ate curry less than once a month were given an average base value of 1 for dementia risk, those who ate it once a month dropped to 0.834, then down to 0.754 for those who ate it two or three times a month, and even further down to 0.718 for anyone who ate curry four times a month or more.

What a fun gift. I hope all your recipients like curry.

I was reading a chicken curry recipe a few days ago and they recommended "Sweet Curry Powder By Penzeys Spices." I'd never heard of sweet curry powder, but there are lots of raves all over the internet, so I thought I'd give it a try. Waiting for it to arrive now.

Live in Japan for 3 years and just down the street was an old school 1960s Mom and Pop Cafe with cheap but tasty homestyle food. They had a beef curry that was just perfect on a cool rainy day.

If this is true, then why are Japanese so demented?

Tentacle porn didn’t invent itself, you know.
