Simple Ways To Optimize Turmeric’s Effectiveness To Greatly Improve Its Healing Ability
For many years, turmeric has been used to treat various diseases. It can be found everywhere from smoothies, foods, and even supplements. This powerful anti-inflammatory medicine can improve cognitive function, fight inflammatory disorders (like rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis), treat upset stomach, solve skin issues, combat microbial infections, improve weight loss, decrease insulin and leptin resistance, and slow the rate of cancer growth. These powerful health benefits were mainly due to its active compound known as curcumin, which is also responsible for its typical bright yellow color.
However, you need to know that even if you sprinkle turmeric in everything you eat, your body poorly absorbs curcumin and has minimal impact on blood levels when taken alone. Fortunately, there are certain ways wherein you can enhance curcumin’s absorption and get turmeric’s full powers.
