Curcumin is a powerful antioxidant that can help with:
- Positively impacting your good cholesterol levels
- Reducing inflammation and subsequent joint issues
- Supporting male prostate health

- Supporting postmenopausal health in women (along with exercise)
Plus, with this spice capable of crossing the blood-brain barrier, curcumin’s potential as a neuro-protective nutrient and supporter of overall brain health is quite exciting.
NATURAL ANTI-INFLAMMATORY
Inflammation is a process that helps defend our bodies from the damage that can be caused by bacteria, injuries and viruses. It is a necessary process but long-term inflammation can cause some serious conditions.
Curcumin can help reduce the effect of inflammation and studies have shown that there is a positive reaction at a molecular level from people who suffer from these conditions.
POWERFUL ANTIOXIDANT
Antioxidants help reduce the damage to cells caused by free radicals. This damage, along with inflammation, is one of the main driving forces for cardiovascular diseases.
Curcumin may help with reducing the risks of heart disease by managing cholesterol levels.
GOOD FOR THE BRAIN
More and more studies have shown that curcumin may help protect against the build up of Amyloid Plaques, which is one of the main symptoms of Alzheimer's.
There is evidence that it can also help with depression and generally improving our mood.
