Fatty Liver Sufferers May Benefit from the Use of Turmeric

 

Orlando, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/07/2015 -- Today, more and more preventable diseases are affecting the health and overall quality of life of people. This has led the many to resort to natural means of improving their overall health. The use of natural supplements, such as turmeric, is one of the remedies believed to be helpful for health, especially in the liver.

Fatty liver sufferers may benefit from the use of turmeric. This ancient, medicinal spice has been used for thousands of years as a natural remedy for fighting a range of conditions. Its healing effects are believed to come from its phytochemical called curcumin.

"Curcumin contains antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties," said Divine Bounty spokesperson, Melissa Scott.

The spice is believed to have the potential ability to increase the blood cholesterol levels as well as decrease the risk of fatty liver disease. It is believed to help regulate the enzymes responsible for metabolizing cholesterol. This was according to the study that had laboratory animals on a high-fat diet. In a study issued by the China Pharmaceuticals, it was reaffirmed that the spice has the ability to inhibit the fatty liver model development.

According to Dr. P.N. Ravindran, author of the "Turmeric" book, curcumin could potentially reduce the biochemical changes, which are typically caused by alcohol usage. Alcoholic individuals, who are susceptible to fatty liver, may potentially benefit from the use of curcumin supplements.

Fatty liver, otherwise known as hepatic steatosis, is common among heavy drinkers of alcohol. It can also happen among individuals with diabetes type 1 or type 2. Another risk is the use of medications for managing the immune system among individuals with chronic viral infections.

According to research, 38 percent of the population in North India has a genetic predisposition to fatty liver disease. The good news is that the number of sufferers in the country does not reach 38 percent. Experts suggest that there is a chance the widespread use of turmeric in the Indian diet has contributed to the reduced risk of fatty liver disease in North India.

Alcohol use has always been practiced in many areas worldwide, and unfortunately, it carries along certain undesirable and even life-threatening health effects. The good news is that those who are susceptible to diseases such as fatty liver may use curcumin as a preventive measure.

Curcumin can be obtained through adding turmeric powder in dishes and beverages. It can also be consumed through supplementation. Curcumin supplements with bioavailability enhancing ingredients, such as BioPerine, are widely preferred nowadays. BioPerine is a black pepper extract that is believed to help increase curcumin absorption inside the body (amazon.com/Turmeric-Curcumin-BioPerine-Pepper-Extract/dp/B00VSVKJ8I).
