Science Behind Turmeric
Turmeric and its components, including curcumin, have been the subject of scientific studies.
“Some research results show that people who have osteoarthritis reported less joint pain when eating turmeric in recipes,” Brown says. “Turmeric’s effect on mood disorders, depression and dementia have also been explored, but studies are small, so more research will reveal if there is a benefit.”
Turmeric Supplements and Drug Interactions
High doses of curcumin, as found in concentrated turmeric supplements, can interact with certain medications.
Pain relievers: Turmeric supplements can lessen the effects of indomethacin, aspirin, ibuprofen or acetaminophen.
Chemotherapy: If you are receiving chemotherapy treatments, talk to your doctor before taking turmeric supplements, and especially avoid them if you are taking these chemotherapy agents:

What are turmeric and curcumin?
Turmeric is the spice that gives curry its yellow color. It has been used in India for thousands of years as both a spice and medicinal herb. Research Source has shown that turmeric contains compounds with medicinal properties.
These compounds are called curcuminoids. The most important one is curcumin, which is the main active ingredient in turmeric.
Here are the top 10 evidence-based health benefits of turmeric and curcumin.
Turmeric contains bioactive compounds with medicinal properties
It has powerful anti-inflammatory effects. and is a very strong antioxidant. That said, the curcumin content of turmeric is only around 1-6% by weight.
Most studies on this herb use turmeric extracts that contain mostly curcumin itself, with dosages usually exceeding 1 gram (g) per day, which means it would be hard to reach these levels just by using turmeric as a spice. That’s why some people choose to use supplements.
In addition, curcumin is poorly absorbed into your bloodstream. In order to experience the full effects of curcumin, its bioavailability.(the rate at which your body absorbs a substance) needs to improve.
Curcumin is also fat soluble, which means it breaks down and dissolves in fat or oil. That’s why it may be a good idea to take curcumin supplements with a meal that’s high in fat.
Curcumin is a natural anti-inflammatory compound
Curcumin is a bioactive substance that can help fight inflammation, though very high doses are required to produce medicinal results.
Still, it means it has the potential to fight the inflammation that plays a role in many health conditions and diseases.
That’s why anything that can help fight chronic inflammation is potentially important in preventing and helping treat these conditions.
In fact, curcumin has been studied as a beneficial herb in cancer treatment. and has been found to affect cancer growth and development.
Studies have shown that it can:
In another study on rheumatoid arthritis, curcumin appeared to have helped reduce disease-related inflammation.

What these studies can't tell us, though, is what will happen in the human body when a person eats turmeric. Plus, there's a chance that turmeric might interfere with some chemotherapy drugs.

Please share on your social media account to friends, also please text this video to your family and friends. I plan to put out 1000 videos on good information.

There is so much information on this herb. When I first created the video it was an hour of information on turmeric. There is so much more health benefits to turmeric then I posted. I had to shave off about 50% of the information to get it to fit for 19 minutes.
