The Science Behind Turmeric+
We formulated a blend of natural ingredients, each selected for its scientifically supported health benefits. Below is an overview of the research associated with each component. Please see the sources section below for additional information.
Turmeric (Curcuma longa)
Turmeric is renowned for its active compound, curcumin, which exhibits potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Studies have shown that curcumin can help reduce inflammation and may be as effective as some anti-inflammatory drugs without adverse effects. Additionally, curcumin has been associated with anticancer, antidiabetic, and antimicrobial properties.*
Ginger (Zingiber officinale)
Ginger contains bioactive compounds like gingerol, which possess strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Research indicates that ginger can alleviate nausea, reduce muscle pain and soreness, and may lower blood sugar levels, thereby improving heart disease risk factors. It can also help with menstral cramping and migraine relief as well.*
Garlic (Allium sativum)
Garlic is rich in allicin, contributing to its medicinal properties. Studies suggest that garlic can help reduce blood pressure, improve cholesterol levels, and support immune function. Its antioxidant properties may also protect against cell damage and aging.*
Cayenne Pepper (Capsicum annuum)
Cayenne pepper contains capsaicin, known for its metabolism-boosting and pain-relieving properties. Research has shown that capsaicin can increase fat burning and reduce appetite, aiding in weight management. It also has potential benefits in reducing inflammation and relieving pain.*
Black Cumin (Nigella sativa)
Black cumin seeds contain thymoquinone, which has been studied for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties. Research indicates that black cumin may help in managing asthma, hypertension, and other inflammatory conditions.*
Amla (Emblica officinalis)
Amla, or Indian gooseberry, is a rich source of vitamin C and antioxidants. Studies have demonstrated its potential in enhancing immune function, regulating blood sugar levels, and improving heart health by reducing cholesterol levels.*
Black Pepper (Piper nigrum)
Black pepper is rich in piperine, which enhances the absorption of various nutrients and compounds, including curcumin from turmeric. Studies have shown that piperine can increase curcumin absorption by up to 2,000%, amplifying its health benefits.*
