MISS OTIS REGRETS

New research shows that eating curry once or twice a week could help prevent the onset of Alzheimer's disease and dementia. The key reason is curcumin, a component of the spice turmeric.

Curcumin prevents the spread of amyloid protein plaques, which are thought to cause dementia. Amyloid plaques, along with tangles of nerve fibers, contribute to the degradation of the wiring in brain cells.

There is evidence that people who eat a curry meal two or three times a week have a lower risk of dementia. Researchers are currently testing the impact of higher doses, such as the equivalent of going on a curry spree for a week, to see if they can maximize the effect.

AND NOW:

[Miss Otis Regrets]

Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today.

Madam,

Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today.

She is sorry to be delayed,

but last night down in Lover's Lane she strayed,

Madam,

Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today.

When she woke up and found

That her dream of love was gone,

Madam,

She ran to the man

Who had led her so far astray,

And from under her velvet gown

She drew a gun and shot her lover down,

Madam,

Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today.

When the mob came and got her

And dragged her from the jail,

Madam,

They strung her upon

The old willow across the way,

And the moment before she died

She lifted up her head and cried,

Madam,

"Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today."
