How can it benefit you?
Turmeric and Psoriasis...Many people swear by turmeric in offering some relief to their psoriasis flare-ups. One of the editors here at Nutritional-Supplement-Info suffers from psoriasis personally, and after taking turmeric psoriasis, the symptoms faded greatly over time (after several months). However, this is far from a guarantee that turmeric and psoriasis will alleviate the symptoms of this condition for all sufferers.
Turmeric is a powerful antioxidant, neutralizing free radical damage, and acts as an anti-inflammatory, which may help mitigate arthritis pain. It also harbors anti-carcinogenic properties.
Studies have shown that cultures such as India which use a lot of curcumin in their cooking have a much lower incidence of Alzheimer's disease than the Western world.
Other benefits of curcumin in tumeric are: potentially protecting the liver from toxic substances, and reducing platelets from clumping together--which may help guard against atherosclerosis and help improve blood circulation.
Precautions
Turmeric seems to be a very safe herb. It is used frequently as a spice in many dishes.
Potency can vary enormously from one turmeric supplement to another. The highest potency supplements use Turmeric extract that is standardized to 95% curcumin. Because
the curcumin is responsible for the herb's therapeutic benefits, we advise looking for a tumeric supplement with 95% curcumin.
