Most people know by now the health benefits of taking Turmeric, but many are not aware that the bioavailability of Turmeric is very minimal when taking it alone. Curcumin is a proven anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effective against inflammation-related pain disorders such as arthritis.
This means that its cancer-fighting, anti-inflammatory, adaptogenic nature is not fully unlocked unless you're including one of these extra steps:1. Consume turmeric or curcumin with black pepper. Adding black pepper to turmeric or turmeric-spiced food enhances curcumin’s bioavailability by 1,000 times, due to black pepper’s hot property called piperine. Many of the turmeric supplements available now will include piperine as this unlocks turmeric.
2. Consumer turmeric with a fat. Turmeric is fat soluble so taking it with coconut oil or making a Golden Milk increases your benefit from taking this herb. A little fat plus a little turmeric equals a whole host of health benefits.
Share this with your loved ones if you hear they're taking turmeric so they can get more out of this beautiful spice. Best wishes- Collin
