Turmeric – It kills cancer cells and kills inflammation

June 30, 2016June 30, 2016by Sandyin Blog, Health, Healty Eating, Vitamins

There’s a dangerous condition that affects the majority of the population.

Even though this condition is directly linked to many of today’s most widespread and deadly diseases, people are still largely unaware of how serious the problem is, and many simply ignore it.

The condition is chronic inflammation.

And while yes, your body wouldn’t be able to survive without it’s healing “inflammation response” that helps heal wounds and sickness… that’s not the problem.

The problem is that in the over-toxic, under-nourished world we’re living in today, your immune system is almost certainly on HIGH ALERT 24 hours a day… 7 days a week.

This puts your inflammation response into constant overdrive and causes a litany of different conditions.

From increased risk of heart disease and cancer, to increased joint pain, risk of depression and more… chronic inflammation is something I urge you to understand and start addressing in your body right now.

In this article, I’m going to tell you about the dangers of chronic inflammation and show you an amazing healing herb that has the potential to help maintain healthy inflammation levels and a whole lot more.

I’m going to reveal its ancient origins and how this amazing herb has the potential to naturally maintain your body’s healthy inflammation response.

Keep reading!

The Indians Knew It All Along.

The first time I encountered this particular herb was in India in the famed Lalbagh spice market in Mumbai.

Heaped high with every herb, root and spice you can imagine (and many that you can’t), one substance was held in higher regard than most all others.

Rumored to help hundreds of different kinds of ailments, every vendor sold this pungent bright yellow powder. Used in curries, stews and broths for centuries, it’s bitter flavor and amazing color sets it apart from the rest.

It’s turmeric.

Turmeric is believed to be one of the most potent healing herbs on earth.

As the Indians and other cultures discovered in ancient times, turmeric is a highly potent healing compound.

Turmeric contains a compound called curcumin, and it’s this substance that accounts for turmeric’s powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

As we talked about a moment ago, chronic inflammation is rampant in the USA and elsewhere in the West.

That’s because most people were raised on a diet high in processed foods laced with artificial chemicals and stripped of much of its nutritional value.

And so many people still eat these foods every day!

It’s because of toxins in our food, in the air we breathe, and the water we drink. It’s because so much of our soil has been depleted, so that even many “healthy” foods don’t provide the nutrition and immune-boosting power they once did.

Even for the most health-conscious amongst us, our bodies are literally in a constant fight.

From our lungs to our gut, this chronic inflammation can create lasting and sometimes permanent damage to our bodies and immune systems.

Meanwhile curcumin has become one of the most studied natural antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds in history.

In fact over 5600 research studies have been performed on turmeric and the curcumin it contains.

The most recent studies have shown that turmeric and curcumin have properties that set it apart from many other traditional herbal and medicinal plants. Its unique anti-inflammatory action has proven as effective as other medications for treating high inflammation conditons.

(Ref – Bundy R, Walker AF, Middleton RW, Booth J. Turmeric extract may improve irritable bowel syndrome symptomology in otherwise healthy adults: a pilot study.
Itokawa H, Shi Q, Akiyama T, Morris-Natschke SL, Lee KH. Recent advances in the investigation of curcuminoids. Chin Med. 2008 Sep 17;3:11
Nagabhushan M, Bhide SV. Nonmutagenicity of curcumin and its antimutagenic action versus chili and capsaicin. Nutr Cancer. 1986; 8(3): 201-10.)

On its own turmeric is something you definitely need more of in your diet… decreasing chronic inflammation and reducing the chances of long term effects should be on everyone’s short list.

But there’s a whole lot more to the story.

What if I told you turmeric’s potency can be increased almost exponentially?

Here’s the most interesting thing about this funny little root and the healing compounds inside…

When you combine it with some other very common herbs and spices, it actually forms a very powerful “cocktail” that lets your body process it even more quickly and more effectively!

Turmeric, when combined with other potential healing compounds becomes a “superpower” when it comes to fighting inflammation.

Herbs and spices are funny things.

Ancient healers had a wealth of knowledge about what plants had powerful healing properties and what combinations gave faster, better more long lasting results.

Turmeric is high on the list of ancient healing foods not only for its ability to ease symptoms of inflammation and pain, but also it its ability and willingness to work in combination with a lot of other plants, herbs and spices.

In India, for example, turmeric is one of the main ingredients in many curries along with ginger, a known digestive and anti-inflammatory, and black pepper that contains a substance called piperine.

When combined together they make a powerful combination that increases the body’s ability to process the curcumin in turmeric by up to 2000%. (ref – http://nutritionfacts.org/2015/02/05/why-pepper-boosts-turmeric-blood-levels/)

In fact, on it’s own or in combination turmeric can aid in a whole host of conditions related to chronic inflammation:

Maintain Healthy Inflammation

2

Enhanced and Elevated Mood

In a recent study researchers found clear evidence that the compounds in turmeric helped maintain healthy mood and disposition in patients experiencing a MDD (Major Depressive Disorder) and found it safe to add to existing treatments.

Maintain Healthy Joints

In addition to lowering overall pain and inflammation, curcumin has been shown to reduce pain and inflammation in a breakthrough study of patients with osteoarthritis. This study shows that adding curcumin can help maintain healthy joints.

3 Critical Factors For Using Turmeric To Help Decrease Inflammation:

Critical Factor #1: Turmeric on it’s own has the potential to help maintain healthy inflammation and oxidation levels in the body, as research has shown. But it’s even more powerful when combined with other herbs that enhance its bioavailability even more.

Critical Factor #2: Finding the right dosage when using turmeric in cooking or in medicinal teas is extremely important to making sure you’re getting the right amount into your system to make a real difference.

Critical Factor #3: Much like critical factor #2 you also need to make sure you’re sourcing your turmeric root or dried extract from the highest possible quality supplier. Ground turmeric that’s been sitting in a warehouse for weeks will be much less potent than fresh ground roots.  Buy from a supplier that sources good Organic Turmericturmeric-400
