- Turmeric or Indian saffron is originates from Curcuma longa a plant native to Asia and now grown in humid, tropical areas throughout the world. Turmeric, a botanical, sold as an herbal supplement ranks among the most widely used dietary supplements. Turmeric has a long history of use in Ayurvedic medicine for conditions ranging form asthma and liver disease to allergies and rheumatism. Unfortunately scientific validation fails to substantiate the majority of medical claims made for turmeric.
Active medical components of turmeric root seem to be limited to the small concentration of curcuminoids of which curcumin remains the most abundant. Volatile essential oils provide flavor while the yellow turmeric root finds use in coloring butter, macaroni and cheese.
Proponents hype turmeric and curcumin for preventing and treating a variety of cancers. One of the leading researchers in the area worked at the famed M. D. Anderson Cancer Clinic in Houston. He published more than 500 papers several of which were cited more than 1000 times each. Then a whistleblower alleged data manipulation and major journals retracted papers and others issues corrections. So much for the cancer benefits.
Turrmeric may bind iron in the intestine leading to iron deficiency and anemia. Lead contamination regularly occurs and the commercial product often contains remnants of cancer causing chemicals and toxic solvents. Bacteria may be present in turmeric supplements. Perhaps counter-intuitively the less expensive products may contain laboratory synthesized curcumin substituted for the natural product.
Another excellent podcast by this doctor.
He doesn't seem to interact on the comments, but I'd say he leans to debunking lots of stuff. A good video of things he DOES recommend would be clarifying!
A transcript would be useful. It used to be a youtube option. Scary about the lead.Vested interests? None of that in Big Pharma. Nope.
Possibly, there are no 100% positive remedies. Exercise, diet, weight control, and other healthy lifestyle habits seem to be remedies, although genetics and injury can be a struggle.
Gotta love a good warm bitterness
Interesting! Now I’m curious about Omega 3 essential fatty acids. Does it actually do what dry eye doctors claim it does or not? 🤔
Turmeric is best spice in world in terms of immunity. As an Indian i regularly drink Turmeric milk and also take honey and lemon juice mixture.
@Wayne M Indians have a very low rate of Alzheimer and all thanks to this spice.
Wayne M My dad has arthritis and I had him drink turmeric tea with black pepper and he said it helped him tremendously. It does work.
@Wayne M There's substantial evidence that turmeric supports cognitive functioning and slows cognitive decline. It increases BDNF.
@Wayne M Peer-reviewed journals google it bro on Google scholar type Tumeric
@@TheShivang007 I took turmeric as an anti inflammatory when I had Covid 19 and it worked great. I think it is the best medicine on planet earth
My joint doctor recommended turmeric + magnesium capsules for my inflamed knees (before I had them replaced with titanium!) -- now I take it with Neem leaf extract in expectation each morning to prevent inflamation and regulate my microbiom. I also use curry powder that contains turmeric. I do know that made into a paste with coconut oil, turmeric whitens the teeth and turns the bristle of the toothbrush orange. The taste is drying, so it seems that turmeric powder is alkaline (as opposed to acidic) so adjusting the PH balance of the system may be wherein its advantages reside. ??
Doctor, you are the best of the best. What more can I say….
To bad the U.S.A. has no real independent control on herbs. Curcuma has great potential!
Thanks for this video- I was over-zealous with it, and I now feel very sore.
Can you do a video about Vitiligo please?! 🥺
Thanks for this
I’ve seen a study saying Ginger is good for asthma? I wonder if it’s good.
Ken, Can you do a review for Lamotrigine?!!!
Thanks for your presentation Doc
Sharon the doc is full of it,he's a medical doctor, he will cast shade on anything that's not Dr prescribed, he has his own objective why he's playing down the effectiveness of turmeric, there's numerous clinical studies the effectiveness of the use of turmeric with black pepper, you have to remember he's a medical Dr, he's not with natural homeopathic, he perfer u buying pharmaceutical,.
@@saltwell80 I totally agree with you. However I would like to suggest that the naturalist should also high light the possible side effects of turmeric.
Yes, this highly skilled compassionate educator and clinician has left an impactful legacy. Been watching his presentations of the research since he began.
SUPPOSEDLY it helps with.... :)
Its really good the turmeric
cosmetic dermatology ?
What about eating the root in a smoothy?
The raw root supposedly contains more oxalate than the powdered form.
Oh yeah.....polish your car with it, clean concrete, brush your teeth with it, kills fleas on your dog, makes your mother-in-law more likeable.......you bet. As an organic chemist I've worked in pharma research in grad school, for Dow Chemical, and taught in colleges and high schools. What I am hearing in this video sounds quite accurate to me. I used to synthesize lead compounds in the classroom to show the rich, yellow color of the compounds. I did not want my students exposed to lead if I could prevent it.
I live in Honduras and I grow turmeric so my pills we make pills and they contain only turmeric and pepper no other chemicals
@@patricianoll1229 That is wonderful......we need more like you.
I don’t rely on turmeric lol. But adding spices to healthy eating I find. Good. Even if it is just a health mind set. That calms yourself . Brings order and stress relief.
He passed away at age 73, on March 11, 2022.
.didn't know lead is orange. i read in another comment section that lead is heavier, so they also make more money cutting turmeric with lead because they sell it by weight.
Drug companies conduct the studies he loves on drugs they produce. Would they study an inexpensive compound?
Sounds accurate but wish that it wasn’t . I use too much turmeric and also feed it to my dog. I thought using turmeric was a no brainer. Where can I put my faith??
Of course, too much of anything is not always good, as you know.
Must work for one of the Big Pharmaceutical Companies!
Obviously, you have not been following this channel.
No he’s correct I was so wrong, it’s full of lead the conventional Tumeric I’m dirty on this fact and took it back to my shopping centre and got a refund. All petrol colour rose to the top , I take back my nasty comments in here also. Sorry Dr
I think he works for big pharma
He has no motives for being obsessed with the truth.
YES IT WORKS !!
Has to 800 mg
I think there are quite a few trials now that have proven some benefits
Seems he enjoys debunking.. nothing is worth it . But many people are helped. By many meds. If your a thrill seeker. Drug taker. You aren’t being smart for your body. But many people are really sick . Often mentally . Panic . For one even if you don’t understand why? Pts. Many things. That’s why they sought help. Rather than be incapacitated . Having hallucinations prior. How does this happen. I don’t know. But facts are facts. And some of these meds he debunks . Have given me a quality of life . I wouldn’t have.. I find a sarcasm in him. Sorry if you think otherwise. But I’m looking elsewhere... bye..
He’s supposedly protecting big pharmaceutical companies the dog
nobody who is smart is using any brand out there. there is actually only one, Thorne Research, that is free of all non -medicinal ingredients that are known to be harmful such as talc, titanium dioxide, mg stearates, maltodextrins, etc.
Helps with erectile dysfunction ... contraception ... fertility ... supposedly.
No impressive presentation, but seems like he is pretty full of BS
Unbelievably horrible - I’m throwing away immediately!
all those claims , then it must be an extraterrestrial spice.
Expensive urine.
Idk, this guy seems suspicious.
Thanks! I can stop wasting my money and risking my health. Sounds like “snake oil” with the bite added 🤨.
This guy just cut up a spice that I've seen boasted about in ten other videos. Who do I believe??
I just been waiting 4 someone to come along to down play and cast shade on our parade and excitement of using turmeric to propagate their own objective, get organic, there has been amazing clinical studies on the use of turmeric and black pepper, so iam foaming my own conclusion based on people experience and my own, I pose one question do you believe in pharmaceutical, I bet you do,iam cautious about pharmaceutical not organic turmeric which has proven itself to be a wonderful food that God has put here for mankind, iam expecting this comment to be taken down. I smell a rat
It is widely known in public health that the rate of Alzheimer disease is by far the lowest in India
Too much of a rant to be believable. Do your own research.
