How This Nourishes Your Body

If you only chose one herb, choose turmeric.

turmeric-root-flickrTurmeric is an herb native to Southeast Asia that has been used for its incredible healing and health promoting properties throughout generations. Today, research is revealing that turmeric is more powerful than we ever knew.

Turmeric is rich with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties that have been shown in an increasing number of studies to protect and heal virtually every organ in the body!

What makes turmeric so incredible healing is its active ingredient curcumin. Years of research on this sacred plant has revealed over 600 potential preventive and therapeutic applications, as well as 175 distinct beneficial physiological effects.

Science now confirms turmeric as effective as 14 drugs! Including, Prozac( Antidepressant), Aspirin (blood thinner), and Oxaliplatin (chemotherapy drug).

Turmeric has especially been found to be incredibly healing in fighting cancer. Recent studies by the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center showed that curcumin was more effective at reducing inflammation and fighting cancer (including pancreatic and breast cancer) than anything else studied. The study research professor, Bharat Aggarwal, Ph.D. says:

“No cancer has been found, to my knowledge, which is not affected by curcumin. The reason curcumin is so effective against cancer is that it hits not just a single target or cell signaling pathway but dozens of targets implicated in cancer.”

This is a great turmeric supplement . I also love consuming turmeric bone broth protein

How to Use Turmeric 

You can find both organic powdered turmeric and turmeric root at most health food stores. I use ground turmeric in almost everything I cook, especially eggs, soups, and stir fry dishes.

You can also grate turmeric root and steep it in hot water to make an extremely healing tea.
