Curcumin, A Great Spice For Inflammation (582 hits)
Curcumin Combats Dangerous Inflammation
You may have heard about the dangers of "silent" inflammation. It's been discussed by Dr. Oz and has made headlines in publications such as Newsweek and Time. It's important for you to know that low-grade inflammation is rapidly becoming recognized as the root cause of the development of cognitive decline, as well as a wide range of serious health problems.[4]
Unfortunately, most people don't do anything until the initial symptoms, such as muscle aches and joint discomfort, appear. When this happens, their gut reaction often is to go see a doctor, who is unlikely to correctly diagnose the problem, and more than likely will prescribe drugs that are far from safe and only provide short-term benefits.
But the initial symptoms of pain are just the beginning. If left unchecked, inflammation can damage your body in many ways. One of the worst examples of this is cognitive decline, which can ravage your memory and severely impact your quality of life in what should be your golden years.
Here are 7 ways inflammation can damage your body: Memory loss and cognitive decline Increased cardiovascular risk Joint pain and loss of mobility Allergies and breathing discomfort Accelerated skin aging and wrinkles Compromised digestive function Weight gain and loss of muscle tone
Cutting-edge science is showing that curcumin is one of the most powerful, natural anti-inflammatories ever studied. Curcumin is so effective because it is a potent inhibitor of the body's most powerful inflammation-causing chemical, called Nf-kappa beta. Miraculously, curcumin has been shown in numerous studies to tame joint pain and muscle soreness, protect the brain, support cardiovascular health, bolster immunity and more.[5,6,7,8,9] If you have a lingering health problem that no doctor can resolve, you may be suffering from inflammation and curcumin may be just the natural solution you've been looking for.
After reading one of Sister Juanita's blogs on herbs and decided to read up on Turmeric. About 2 weeks ago, I went to a nutrition store and purchased it. In less than 1 hour, I noticed a difference in my knee pain. I've been able to start back 'dropping it like its hot'!
