(Health-NewsWire.Net, July 16, 2015 ) Orlando, Florida -- There are many spices and herbs nowadays that are used for a variety of health purposes, and one is turmeric. This ancient spice is popularized by its key ingredient called curcumin, which is believed to have many health benefits. Individuals who want to improve their overall health may use the spice on a daily basis.
Experts provide some methods to add turmeric to people's diets. According to herbalists, the curcumin in turmeric is believed to be helpful for individuals who suffer from conditions such as liver and digestive problems.
According to the University of Maryland Medical Center, one of the possible reasons why curcumin is considered to be very therapeutic is because of its capacity to act as an antioxidant. It is believed to help neutralize dangerous oxides, which are often produced during metabolism. The ingredient is also believed to aid in bile production and help in fat digestion. The UMMC stated that turmeric may potentially help fight infections, reduce inflammation and aid in digestive problems.
"Turmeric powder can be found in the grocery store's spice aisle. Its bitter taste makes it a delicious addition to steamed and sautéed vegetables such as cauliflower, broccoli and onions," advises George Mateljan Foundation which created a website called The World's Healthiest Foods.
There are many ways to incorporate turmeric into one's diet and one is to consume mustard. According to the UMMC, mustard contains turmeric, which is considered to be an illness-fighting ingredient and provides the condiment with its bitter flavor and bright yellow color. Mustard can be added to burgers, egg salad and marinades.
One of the most popular dishes is the Indian curry. This dish originates from the Indian cuisine and necessitates the use of several spices including turmeric. The spice can be added to soups, sauces and meat dishes. Adding extra turmeric to curry can provide the dish with a stronger flavor as well as increased nutritional value. According to The World's Healthiest Foods, curry can be prepared with the use of a combination of ingredients such as ginger, raisins, basmati rice and coconut milk.
There are many techniques for incorporating the spice into one's daily diet. Even those who follow dietary plans such as a Mediterranean diet, vegetarianism or Paleo diet can find a thousand ways to use the spice in preparing their dishes. Individuals who want to take turmeric without using its powdered version can take advantage of curcumin supplements available today. Experts recommend the use of curcumin supplements that contain a nutrient-enhancing black pepper extract known as BioPerine (amazon.com/Turmeric-Curcumin-Complex-BioPerine-Bio-availability/dp/B00JA4TLTI).
