Turmeric is your answer to inflammation and joint pain. As an anti-inflammatory, turmeric may regulate the factors in your body that are linked with inflammation. Turmeric (Curcuma longa L.), a relative of ginger, is native to the tropical regions of Asia. This perennial plant contains the active component curcumin, a yellow pigment which has been incorporated into Ayurvedic and Traditional Chinese Medicine for centuries. Each vegetarian capsule provides 500 mg of turmeric per capsule for use as an anti-inflammatory and to help relieve stomach complaints. Studies have revealed that 500 mg of Curcumin supplementation helps lower key inflammatory agents like T-kininogen and L-theostatin, associated with joint pain and inflammation, in experimental models. Organika's Curcumin Vegetarian Capsules is formulated with turmeric which is an anti-inflammatory agent. Inflammation has been shown to play a role in most chronic illnesses. For maximum effect, combine with Black Pepper to enhance absorption.
