Portland, OR -- (SBWire) -- 11/20/2014 --For thousands of years, turmeric has not just been a common household spice but also a healing herb. Many people from around the world have been taking advantage of the therapeutic benefits offered by the spice.

Arthritis sufferers are the most common users of turmeric, as it is believed to be very effective in providing joint pain relief. However, there are many other potential health benefits of turmeric that a large number of health experts are trying to investigate.

According to the scientific studies aimed at validating the medicinal properties of turmeric, the herb can have potential benefits for longevity. The curcumin in turmeric has antiviral, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antifungal, and antibacterial properties. These therapeutic substances could significantly help fight a wide variety of medical conditions such as diabetes, arthritis, allergies, malignant disease, cardiovascular diseases, and chronic illnesses.

The U.S. National Institutes of Health has registered 71 clinical trials that study the use of curcumin for various clinical disorders. According to Dr. Andrew Weil, director of the Arizona Center for Integrative Medicine, the bottom line of the studies is that the therapeutic advantages of the herb are almost too many to list.

A great deal of research has been done in recent years due to the fact that alternative treatments have continually been gaining the trust of a huge number of individuals. Many of these people are suffering from specific medical conditions, while others just want to improve their overall health.

“Turmeric seems to have many nutritional benefits. The nutrients it contains could significantly help improve overall health. Even medical practitioners recommend the use of curcumin supplements,” added O’Sullivan.

Curcumin supplements are widely available in the U.S., with consumers able to purchase locally or online. Experts suggest looking for a supplement that also contains a black pepper extract, which can significantly improve the body’s capacity to absorb the nutrients from the curcumin (www.amazon.com/Turmeric-Curcumin-Complex-BioPerine-Bio-availability/dp/B00JA4TLTI/).
