Well, almost all.
Turmeric is a true superfood! It has recently entered the spotlight as it possesses natural anti-inflammatory properties. Since most diseases and imbalances in the body stem from inflammation - this is an extremely beneficial property.
Turmeric is a spice from the ginger plant family. Turmeric has been the subject of extensive research, with many studies finding it has powerful antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immune-boosting properties. Curcumin, a fat-soluble compound found in Turmeric, is what gives it these amazing health benefits. Always combine turmeric with a healthy fat souce and black pepper to maximize its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits.
Other known benefits include:
- Can help treat symptoms of arthritis and lessen joint pain
- Neutralizes free radicals on it's own then stimulates the body's own antioxidant enzymes
- Curcumin is about 10 times more powerful as an antioxidant than vitamin E (found in many nuts & seeds) and about twice as potent as resveratrol (found in red wine & chocolate), making it great for the skin
It's also great for boosting the immune system and fighting cold + flu symptoms and is calming for the digestive system.
