Exploring the Health Benefits of Turmeric

Exploring the Health Benefits of Turmeric

Turmeric is best known for two things, its rich bright colour and its powerful natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. 

Let's explore the health benefits of Turmeric together! We can start with Curcumin and what that is, Curcumin is the active compound in Turmeric and has been shown to reduce inflammation in the body by blocking certain enzymes and signalling molecules that contribute to inflammation. 

Turmeric root helps the body in so many ways, let's get into those benefits!

Gut & Digestive Health - Turmeric is know to have antimicrobial properties that can help eliminate harmful bacteria in the gut, promoting healthy digestion and working to ease symptoms of inflammatory bowel disease. 

Aches, pains and mobility -  Studies have shown that turmeric can be particularly effective in reducing muscle soreness, Turmeric reduces inflammation in conditions such as arthritis and joint pain. 

Cognitive Function: The antioxidant properties of Turmeric can help improve brain function and lower the risk of age-related cognitive decline. 

Immune system: Curcumin helps to stimulate the production of white blood cells, which are responsible for fighting off infections and diseases. It also helps to enhance the activity of these cells, increasing their effectiveness in combating harmful invaders such as bacteria and viruses.

Your skin: Turmeric's potent antioxidant and antibacterial properties can help reduce acne and scarring. Help to soothe redness and inflammation caused by some skin conditions while working to brighten dull skin and even out skin tone. 

Overall, there is strong evidence to suggest that incorporating Turmeric into your diet can have significant anti-inflammatory benefits for your overall health and well-being.

What to look for in Turmeric Supplements? 

The body isn't able to absorb Turmeric easily on its own, so a good formula to look for is one that also contains ginger and black pepper. These two added bioenhancer ingredients compliment the bodies ability to absorb Turmeric for maximum efficiency while adding additional benefits themselves. Research supports that combining the piperine in black pepper with the curcumin in turmeric enhances absorption by up to 2,000%.
