for those of you following me here and also on Instagram, you probably have noticed that I talk about the benefits of turmeric many times.
There are many benefits of taking turmeric supplement daily that are backed up by science.
1- Anti-Inflammatory : active ingredient in turmeric is curcumin, a potent anti-inflammatory
2- Supports Healthy Joints : promotes joint health and mobility
3- Promotes Heart Health: supports overall health of the cardiovascular system.
4- Encourages Healthy Cholesterol Levels
5- Boost Stress Tolerance
6- Promotes Radiant skin
7- Improves Mood
8- Supports Liver Function
9- Improves Brain Health
10- Helps With Arthritis
A recent analysis of research published in the Journal Of Medicinal Food on turmeric extracts, concluded that eight to twelve weeks of treatment with standardized turmeric extract can reduce pain due to arthritis, compared to placebo.
What medications should not be taken with turmeric : Drugs that reduce stomach acid ( Tagamet, Pepcid, Nexium, Prevacid ), turmeric may interfere with actions of these drugs, increasing production of stomach acid.
Also, turmeric might slow blood clotting. Stop using turmeric at least 2 weeks before a scheduled surgery.
Patients always ask me which brand of turmeric I am currently using. The brand I use is by Truvani, Turmeric Curcumin with black pepper. which is certified organic and NON-GMO. Also, there are benefits of having turmeric and black pepper together. The black pepper contains a compound, piperine ,which enhances curcumin absorption in the body. With just 1/20 teaspoon or more of black pepper, the bioavailability of turmeric is greatly improved, and turmeric's benefits are further enhanced. And Truvani, has made this possible with this supplement.
