Turmeric and Brain !

                           

A Bowl of Tumeric 

A spice commonly found in curries may boost the brain's ability to heal itself,

according to a report in the journal Stem Cell Research and Therapy.

The German study suggests a compound found in turmeric

could encourage the growth of nerve cells thought to be part of the brain's repair kit.

Scientists say this work, based in rats, may pave the way for future drugs :

for strokes and Alzheimer's disease.

Researchers from the Institute of Neuroscience and Medicine in Julich, Germany, studied the effects of aromatic-turmerone - a compound found naturally  in turmeric.

Rats were injected with the compound and their brains were then scanned.

Particular parts of the brain, known to be involved in nerve cell growth, were seen to be more active after the aromatic-turmerone infusion.

Scientists say the compound may encourage a proliferation of brain cells.
