Turmeric (Curcuma) 700mg – 60 capsules Vitaking UK

Like many other spices, turmeric has a long history of use in traditional medicine. In addition to giving food its vibrant yellow color, this aromatic spice is also known for its powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. The main active ingredient in turmeric, which also gives it its characteristic yellow color, is curcumin, which is responsible for most of the potential benefits of turmeric. Unfortunately, turmeric itself is not well absorbed into the bloodstream, but taking a turmeric supplement that contains black pepper may help, as piperine in black pepper helps turmeric to be more bioavailable, meaning that it is better absorbed or utilized by the body. Here we have gathered some of the benefits of turmeric and curcumin:

1. Curcumin is an anti-inflammatory Turmeric is commonly used to combat inflammation, its anti-inflammatory property being due to curcumin. In fact, at the right dose, curcumin can be a more effective anti-inflammatory treatment than conventional non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Since chronic inflammation contributes to many chronic diseases, curcumin can help treat conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease, pancreatitis, and arthritis.

2. Curcumin may protect against heart disease A previous study showed that curcumin can improve the health of the thin membrane that lines the inside of the heart and blood vessels. This membrane plays a key role in regulating blood pressure. Thus, curcumin can help protect against age-related degeneration and may reduce the likelihood of developing heart disease. Another study found that curcumin was also effective in improving endothelial function in people with type 2 diabetes.

3. Curcumin may contribute to the prevention and treatment of cancer Since inflammation can result in tumor growth, anti-inflammatory compounds such as curcumin may play a role in the treatment and prevention of a variety of types of cancer, including colorectal, pancreatic, prostate, breast, and gastric cancers. In fact, research conducted in mice suggests that curcumin can slow the spread of tumor cells and may even prevent tumor formation.

4. Curcumin may relieve the symptoms of osteoarthritis Due to its anti-inflammatory properties, curcumin can be a safe and effective long-term treatment option for people with osteoarthritis. In one study, people with osteoarthritis who took 1,000 mg of drugs containing a natural mixture of curcuminoids daily for eight months experienced significant improvements in stiffness and physical function. And a study conducted in mice found that 50 mg of curcumin administered orally per kilogram of body weight significantly slowed the progression of osteoarthritis, while a topical curcumin treatment relieved pain.

5. Curcumin may help treat or prevent diabetes According to a previous analysis of studies, curcumin may help treat and prevent diabetes, as well as associated disorders. Animal studies have found that curcumin can lead to a significant reduction in blood sugar, an increase in plasma insulin, and a decrease in blood insulin levels.

6. Turmeric may help delay or reverse Alzheimer’s disease Turmeric can protect the brain against common degenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease, by increasing the level of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a protein that is found in the brain and spinal cord, which plays a key role in maintaining the health of nerve cells, as well as regulating communication between them.

7. Turmeric may contribute to the treatment of depression Like Alzheimer’s disease, depression is also associated with low levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Since turmeric can increase BDNF levels, the spice seems to be a promising antidepressant.

8. Curcumin may be helpful in treating rheumatoid arthritis Being a powerful anti-inflammatory, curcumin shows promise in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, a chronic inflammatory condition that often affects the joints, but can spread to other areas, such as the eyes, lungs, skin, heart, and blood vessels. Rheumatoid arthritis causes painful swelling of the joints that can over time erode the bones and eventually lead to deformities and physical disabilities.

9. Turmeric may improve skin health Due to its anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties, turmeric can be an effective treatment for some skin conditions, including acne, eczema, or psoriasis.

10. Turmeric protects the body from free radicals Antioxidants help the body fight damage caused by free radicals. Excessive exposure to free radicals can have a negative effect on fats, proteins, and even DNA in the body, which can lead to a range of common diseases and conditions, including cancer, arthritis, heart disease, and Alzheimer’s. Therefore, spices rich in antioxidants, such as turmeric, can play a major role in protecting the body from free radicals.

11. 11. Turmeric may function as an anti-aging supplement

    Currently, there is no evidence that turmeric or curcumin directly influence longevity, but due to their ability to combat inflammation, protect the body from free radicals, and potentially delay degeneration of the brain and other age-related diseases, turmeric and curcumin may be effective anti-aging supplements, according to previous research.

    12. Curcumin may prevent eye degeneration

    Glaucoma, a group of eye diseases, is one of the leading causes of blindness in people over 60 years of age. Unfortunately, after vision loss, it cannot be restored. Preliminary research suggests that topical curcumin treatments, such as eye drops, may help protect the eyes from degeneration.

    Although many of the effects of turmeric are still being researched, and many studies have only been conducted in animals, it can still be said that turmeric is a natural anti-inflammatory with many benefits. And if you don’t use turmeric in your dishes, you can supplement your curcumin intake with Vitaking turmeric supplement.
