Rosemary & Time
In a small Italian village south of Naples there is a preponderance of citizenry ninety years of age or older. Scientists have zeroed in on their diet - they use rosemary on everything they cook. Their quality of life is high and incidence of Alzheimer's disease is low. A professor of medicine was quoted "At 95, they have the brains of a 50 year old........and you're still thinking a lot about sex." Mamma Mia!
Dieticians take note!
