There doesn't appear to be any end to the gifts this marvelous spice offers!  I have written at length about the research being done to support its value in cancer, but now UCLA announces that it is also apparently helpful in preventing,m  and possibly treating, Alzheimer's disease.

They began their research for the best possible reason:  Alzheimer's disease is virtually unknown in countries where curry is a staple.

Here is a delicious way to add turmeric to your cooking.

Take 1 cup brown rice, and rinse it.  This is to remove some of the starch. Set it to drain.

Heat 1 tblsp ghee or coconut oil in the bottom of your rice saucepan.  Chop app. half a cup of onion.  If you have black mustard seeds, put 1 tsp in the hot oil until they begin to pop.  Add onion, and cook on medium heat until limp (the onion, that is!) . Add 1/2 tblsp turmeric.  Add rice, and stir until all is coated with oil and turmeric.

Add two cups of water, and cover.  Cook over low heat for 45 minutes, turn off heat and let sit for 10 minutes more without uncovering.
