There are many different species of turmeric. The most commonly used is Curcuma longa, also known as Curcuma domestica. The two main varieties of the C. longa species are Alleppey and Madras. Alleppey is preferred in the United States.
The news is a little better for women, a little worse for men. Life expectancy for females is 81.2 years; for males, it's 76.4 years. That difference of 4.8 years is the same as in 2011.
The average life expectancy for a woman now I think is about 76 - that means American woman are middle aged when they are about 38. I think men are 34. But you won't be considered old until about 55 - of course that's in straight years-gay years it's 22.
