This week on LEISURE LINK with Peter Greco: Dayna Crees had just won Bronze in the javelin in Paris. Dayna shares her pure joy and excitement. Taylor Gosens was preparing for her Judoka competition. Taylor is only the second Australian woman to compete at the Paralympics in Judo. Bridget Murphy was in the middle of Equestrian competition and shared thoughts and tales about her horse Macey. David Mitchell, health commentator, had news on the latest research showing how stress and raised levels of cortisol can impact on memory - perhaps increasing the chances of dementia - and there may be ways to limit or minimise your risk. One possibility is Ashwagandah, the herb in gummy form seems to be absorbed rapidly and easily. Belinda Hellyer, from Brewed By Belinda 97A Old Port Road Queenstown, chatted about some of the history of tea in France, including French Earl Grey - is there really such a thing?
