It has been known to ease arthritis

If you, or someone you know, suffers from arthritis, it may benefit you to know that turmeric has been known to ease arthritis. This is largely due to its anti-inflammatory nature which, when consumed on a regular basis, can decrease pain levels in patients walking with decreased knee function. In addition, the therapeutic potential of turmeric has also shown promise during early studies with future clinical trials needed to determine whether it may be a suitable treatment option for arthritis sufferers that currently rely on NSAIDs.

It can lower the risk of cardiovascular disease

In a study into the anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of turmeric, it has been found to lower the risk of cardiovascular disease by preventing a number of early symptoms in the development of heart disease including high cholesterol. It has also been considered as a treatment in the prevention of heart attack and stroke with turmeric thwarting the development of atherosclerosis, or clogged arteries, which is an underlying factor for both of these diseases.

It can support the immune system

If you have ever experienced problems with your immune system in the past, turmeric may be a viable solution to the problems associated with having a suppressed immune system. It can, for example, down-regulate pro-inflammatory compounds or proteins that are known as cytokines to prevent the gradual onset of long-lasting inflammatory damage. If consumed in small doses on a regular basis, turmeric may also enhance the body’s antibody responses which can help fight off infection and potentially even control allergies.

It can support cognitive function

In addition to easing arthritis, lowering the risk of cardiovascular disease, and supporting the immune system, turmeric can also support cognitive function through its active ingredient, turmerone. It has, for example, been suggested as a potential treatment for stroke sufferers in that it can trigger the process of cell repair to support the recovery of brain function.

If you are curious as to how the popular superfood turmeric can improve your overall health and wellness, there are a number of ways in which it can help. It has, for example, been known to ease arthritis due to its anti-inflammatory nature, can lower the risk of cardiovascular disease by preventing clogged arteries, can support the immune system by down-regulating cytokines, and can support cognitive function by triggering the process of cell repair to support the recovery of brain function in stroke sufferers.
