If you haven't heard of turmeric, or you're wondering why everyone is running to add this bright yellow spice to everything they drink or eat, here's the lowdown...
Turmeric is now considered by many experts to be the single most powerful and beneficial herb on the planet for combatting and preventing disease. WOW! Now that's something worth talking about.
This delicious root (most often used as a spice in Indian cooking) contains the active compound curcumin, which was first identified more than 200 years ago, as an anti-inflammatory molecule.
This is critically important to us because many of the most prevalent diseases today – cancer, heart disease, arthritis, type 2 diabetes – can all be linked back to one major culprit... INFLAMMATION.
In fact, inflammation is so closely tied to heart disease, obesity, and diabetes that it is now considered one of the leading causes of premature death around the world... YIKES!
So, it is in your best interest to do everything you can to prevent and greatly lower any amount of dangerous inflammation inside your body. And yes, turmeric (specifically curcumin) is one of the best ways to calm chronic inflammation inside your body. (I'll get to exactly how to do that in just a second.)
And if being a powerful anti-inflammatory compound was not enough, the curcumin molecule also has tremendous anti-aging, anti-oxidant, anti-microbial, and anti-viral properties.
Not to mention...
- Lowers high blood pressure
- Eases persistent aches and pains
- Increases energy levels and feelings of vitality
- Makes you feel years younger
- Helps with skin problems
- Promotes joint function, mobility, and flexibility
So, how can you get the most benefit from this delicious spice to enjoy all these incredible advantages?
Well, people mistakenly think that a few shakes of turmeric added to their lunch or dinner will do the trick, but that is not the case. To receive the incredible anti-inflammatory benefits of turmeric, you must take 1,000 mg every day. If you aren't taking 1,000 mg a day, it's unlikely you'll get the desired results and health benefits.
You also want to be sure you're absorbing the turmeric you take... because there's no sense in taking it if your body can't absorb it, right?
Raw turmeric is poorly absorbed by the human body, but once you add black pepper, BAM, it can now be effectively absorbed by your digestive system.
With all those considerations, I have sourced and produced one of the best, bioavailable turmeric supplements available. Not only does it contain over 600 mg of turmeric your body can use per capsule, but it is also free of any unnecessary fillers or synthetic ingredients.
