Turmeric And Inflammation

Turmeric And Inflammation

Turmeric is an herb from the ginger spice family and is widely used throughout India, Asia and Central America to enhance both color and flavor. One of turmeric’s most powerful antioxidants is curcumin. Curcumin is well studied to have anti-inflammatory effects and plays an important role in arthritis, stomach, skin and liver issues.

To help bioavailability (curcumin absorption), combining turmeric and black pepper can increase the bodys intake by up to 2000% magnifying the effects greatly.
