Turmeric / Curcumin may help improve working memory and processing speed.
Working memory is a cognitive system responsible for temporarily holding and manipulating information needed for various complex tasks such as learning, reasoning, and comprehension. It is essential for activities requiring active mental processing and decision-making, such as problem-solving, understanding language, and planning.

Turmeric / Curcumin
Orange-yellow curry spice that comes from turmeric root. It is an antioxidant and has antiproliferative and pro-apoptotic effects on cancer cells, especially melanoma. It suppresses inflammation by downregulating NFB activity and blocking eicosanoid synthesis of inflammatory leukotrienes, prostaglandins, and thromboxanes derived from arachidonic acid. Meriva-SR is super potent complex curcumin.
Turmeric / Curcumin VS Exercise for Artery Function!
They showed that regular ingestion of curcumin, or up to an hour a day of aerobic exercise training, significantly improved endothelial function. And the magnitude of improvement in endothelial function was the same.
In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, researchers examined the effects of a solid lipid curcumin formulation on working memory, cognitive function, mood, and blood biomarkers in 60 healthy adults aged 60-85.
Results showed that one hour after administration, curcumin significantly improved sustained attention and working memory compared to placebo. Additionally chronic treatment over four weeks improved working memory, mood, general fatigue and stress-induced changes in calmness, contentedness, and fatigue.
There were also significant improvements in alertness and contentedness after acute-on-chronic treatment.
Also in this study curcumin was associated with reduced total and LDL cholesterol without affecting hematological safety.
Also, In a (2021) meta-analysis it was found that curcumin supplementation significantly improved working memory performance and was potentially beneficial for processing speed. Sensitivity analysis using different working memory tests confirmed these findings.
Turmeric / Curcumin may enhance cognitive function through several mechanisms, mainly by reducing inflammation. Inflammation is known to contribute to adverse cognitive issues in conditions including schizophrenia and mood disorders.
Curcumin helps by blocking certain molecules (NFκB and TNF-α) that are involved in inflammation, thus protecting the brain. Curcumin, may also activate specific pathways that support brain health and reduce brain cell damage.
This combined action can help improve wormemory and processing speed.
However, in some studies, a higher rate of gastrointestinal adverse events was observed in the curcumin groups than in the placebo group.
