Anti Dementia: Curry and Tennis

Curry may help fight dementia
Anything is worth a try and there are other reported anti-cancer and inflammation benefits as well.  One of the best ways is  to add curry to chicken as a cooking spice.

Simply Organic Turmeric Root Ground Certified Organic, 2.38-Ounce Container  It makes the meat tastier and it diffuses the sharp taste to those not used to eating the spice.

There are supplements you can take in pill form as well.

My favorite is Zyflamend Whole Body that contains the active ingredient found in curry among many other anti-inflammatory agents.




Exercise as part of a dementia prevention plan
Playing tennis is one element of a healthy exercise effort to protect yourself from mental decline.

One of the best singles matches

Roger vs Novak 2012 Wimbledon

If you want to see one of the best matches ever played, here it is.  The level of play is astounding and I've watched a lot of "best matches ever going back to the 60's."  It is worth watching if you have never seen it.

Junior Tennis Training

Kriek on what it takes to produce results.
Learn something from this article.  He reiterates that hard work and motivation is still the primary element in success on the court.  Other factors include technical aspects of coaching and learning and this is where a good coach with knowledge of technique can shorten the time needed on the court to master a skill.

I totally agree with this approach on technique.  It can shorten years of practice and training to just simply have proper form within the boundaries of physics and biomechanics.  Not everyone has to look the same but the laws of physics and human anatomy dictate certain approaches for good results.  The upside gain for proper technique is that your ability to improve your results has more to do with your physical abilities once you achieve proper form.


Control first, and power last.
