Why should we consume turmeric?
Turmeric powder is a popular ingredient in traditional Indian and Middle Eastern cuisines, and has been used in medicinal practices for centuries. Here are the five main reasons why one should consume turmeric powder:
Turmeric powder can be consumed in a variety of ways, including adding it to smoothies, soups, curries, and stir-fries, or by taking a turmeric supplement. It is important to note that the body absorbs curcumin better when consumed with black pepper.
- Anti-inflammatory Properties: Turmeric is a powerful anti-inflammatory agent, and its active ingredient curcumin has been shown to reduce inflammation in the body, potentially reducing the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease and arthritis.
- Antioxidant Properties: Turmeric is also a rich source of antioxidants, which protect the body from harmful free radicals and oxidative stress.
- Brain Function: Studies suggest that turmeric may have a positive impact on brain function and may help to prevent age-related cognitive decline.
- Digestive Health: Turmeric can also aid in digestive health by reducing inflammation in the gut and improving the absorption of nutrients from food.
- Pain and Depression: In addition, turmeric has been shown to have pain-relieving properties and may be useful in treating depression.
