(Health-NewsWire.Net, August 31, 2015 ) Orlando, Florida -- Turmeric is a medicinal spice and a popular kitchen ingredient. It has long been a subject of many scientific studies that aimed at exploring or validating its therapeutic benefits. Turmeric is not just popular among individuals who suffer from certain medical conditions or want to improve overall health, but also to researchers.
Research studies reveal hundreds of reasons why turmeric may be the world's most important herb. One of the best benefits of using the spice is that it offers therapeutic effects without causing some side effects, which are usually associated with the use of NSAIDs or other pain relief pharmaceutical medications.
According to experts, turmeric can potentially offer hundreds of health benefits due to its capacity to modulate more than 160 physiological pathways in the body positively. While there is no herb or food that is perfect for everyone and is absolutely side-effect free, turmeric has been found to have an exceptionally high margin of safety compared to pharmaceutical drugs.
"What makes turmeric even more interesting is that no modern-day pharmaceutical drug comes close to the 6,000 year track record of safe turmeric use in Ayurvedic medicine," said VitaBreeze Supplements spokesperson, Michelle O'Sullivan.
While there are many studies that found turmeric has the potential to alleviate human suffering, it is unlikely that the spice will receive the stamp of approval by the FDA. This is due to the lack of patentability, exclusivity and profitability.
GreenMedInfo.com has reviewed more than 5,000 study abstracts from the MEDLINE or the bibliographic database of the National Library of Medicine. From the review, it has been discovered that turmeric or curcumin can offer over 600 potential health benefits. Curcumin is the active ingredient of turmeric, which is associated with a variety of therapeutic substances.
According to the review, curcumin has the potential to destroy multi-drug resistant cancer and cancer stem cells. It can also provide protection against heavy metal toxicity and radiation-induced damage, reduce unhealthy levels of inflammation and reverse or prevent Alzheimer's Disease.
Turmeric is widely available at grocery or local health stores. Consumers can choose turmeric powder and use it when preparing dishes. There are also curcumin supplements available, and they are very popular among individuals who suffer from pain due to arthritis. Curcumin supplements are believed to be helpful not just for pain reduction, but also for mobility improvement.
Consumers need to choose curcumin supplements that contain BioPerine. This black pepper extract is believed to be effective for enhancing the body's ability to absorb nutrients such as curcumin (amazon.com/Turmeric-Curcumin-Complex-BioPerine-Bio-availability/dp/B00JA4TLTI/).
