Turmeric root extract, derived from the Curcuma longa plant, has been used for centuries in traditional medicine due to its potential health benefits. The primary active compound in turmeric root extract is curcumin, which is known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties and a whole host of other benefits including:
Curcuma root extract – an extract from the turmeric plant’s underground stem and has been celebrated for centuries as both a spice and a medicine. As a part of the ancient Indian system of healing in ‘Ayurvedic’ medicine, use of the turmeric plant goes as far back as 2500 B.C.
Extensive scientific study has revealed it’s the curcumin in the turmeric plant rhizome (underground stem) that has the powerful health benefits, proven to aid in the management of oxidative and inflammatory conditions, arthritis, anxiety, and high cholesterol. It can also help in the management of exercise-induced inflammation and muscle soreness therefore enhancing the recovery and performance in active people.
The extract is also beneficial to skin, not only does it soothe and calm any signs of flare-ups in redness and skin irritation that many with sensitive skin types are prone to, it can also help those with acne-prone skin by regulating the skin’s natural production of sebum, this makes it easier to combat breakouts, with the high amount of antioxidant properties there will be a boost in brightness and radiance to skin.
In addition, a relatively low dose of the extract can provide added health benefits for people that do not have diagnosed health conditions, these benefits can be attributed to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.
