(Medical-NewsWire.com, January 16, 2014 ) Ashland, OR -- Turmeric powder has been used for thousands of years in cooking, but it has also been used in traditional Asian and Indian medicine for its natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
Apex Natural, a company that sells a turmeric curcumin supplement, commented that "Turmeric powder and its main component known as curcuminoids have really grown in popularity in recent years as more and more studies have shown the wide range of positive health benefits that is can provide. Especially exciting is the recent research in using turmeric curcumin in potential therapeutic applications for helping with serious health problems like cancer and Alzheimer's."
While the benefits of Turmeric are becoming better known, medical researchers are especially excited about the health benefits of curcuminoids which are the key chemical compound found in Turmeric. Curcuminoids make up about 5% of turmeric so modern medicine has created turmeric extracts with concentrated curcuminoids to provide greater benefits.
A spokesperson from Apex Natural stated "Most research shows that in order to get enough benefits from curcuminoids it would require consuming a very large amount of turmeric extract. Instead you can take turmeric extract that is concentrated with a very high level of curcuminoids.
Curcumin is the most prominent of the curcuminoids so most curcumin supplements are sold with the name curcumin rather than curcuminoids. The typical curcumin extract is concentrated to 95% curcuminoids".
The benefits of turmeric and curcumin are wide ranging with studies being conducted for health application for: anti-inflammation, antioxidants, cardiovascular health, liver health, eye health, neurological support, skin inflammation, allergies, digestion issues, and more.
More and more research is currently being conducted and turmeric is fast becoming one of the most talked about natural health products on the market.
