Turmeric provides you with these whole-person benefits: Supports your healthy joint function Promotes your radiant skin Helps improve your digestion Thousands of years ago, people in India and China used the spice. In fact, some stories suggest usage dates back 10,000 years in India when they say Lord Rama walked the earth. And the ancient Polynesians carried turmeric with them on their incredible voyage across the Pacific Ocean to Hawaii. Today, Hawaiians still use this spice — known to them as Olena. While in China, Marco Polo in 1280 AD recorded information on turmeric in his diary: ” There is also a vegetable which has all the properties of true saffron, as well the smell and the color, and yet it is not really saffron .” So, turmeric has been used as a substitute for saffron (an old-world spice) in Europe for over 700 years. One of the main healthful ingredients in turmeric is curcumin (a curcuminoid), which gives turmeric its yellow color. Western scientists first isolated the curcumin molecule in 1815, obtained its crystalline form in 1870, and determined its overall structure in 1910. Curcumin can potentially benefit you by: Promoting your immune system Helping you maintain your healthy digestive system Supporting your healthy bones, joints, and overall skeletal system* Helping you maintain cholesterol levels that are already within the normal range Promoting your healthy blood and liver functions antioxidants are your body’s #1 way to neutralize free radicals and help you potentially slow down the signs of normal aging. Oxidation by free radicals can damage cells and organs — and thus impact your aging process Antioxidants are also key nutrients in: Supporting your memory function Promoting your heart health Supporting your immune system Turmeric’s antioxidants help protect your cells from free radical damage. The antioxidant content within turmeric comes from active compounds called curcuminoids. These curcuminoids deliver antioxidants that may be: 3 times more powerful than grape seed or pine bark extract Strong enough to scavenge the hydroxyl radical — considered by many to be the most reactive of all oxidants Turmeric has been considered to be ‘skin food’ for thousands of years in India and other cultures. Turmeric helps: Cleanse your skin and maintain its elasticity Provide nourishment to your skin Balance the effects of skin flora Turmeric can act as your one-two punch against normal aging with its skin promotion and antioxidant capabilities — outer beauty plus inner purity. Another potential advantage from turmeric usage involves the smallest living things within you — your cells. Turmeric can assist your cells in three ways, by: Helping neutralizes substances that can cause cellular stress Maintaining your cells’ integrity when threatened by occasional environmental stressors Providing the antioxidants you need to help support your cells against excessive oxidation and free radicals Turmeric is also recognized as an adaptogen — helping to support your body against stress and providing immune system support.
