Adding turmeric to dishes or drinking turmeric tea could have considerable benefits on mental wellness. Turmeric is a popular natural health choice, and recently, researchers from UCLA found a combination of vitamin D3 and turmeric can reduce brain plaque associated with Alzheimer's disease. However, this research took place in a laboratory using human immune cells rather than live humans. More research is needed to confirm these findings. Still, turmeric is a tasty way to spice up dishes while, possibly, getting health benefits.
