BENEFITS OF TURMERIC FOR HEALTH
Hello steemit friends,,,
Turmeric is known as a complementary food that has a distinctive taste and color. Not only used as a spice kitchen, people often use it to cope with various health conditions. But the question is, whether the benefits of turmeric has been tested in terms of medical?
Turmeric has a chemical compound called curcumin. The substance has the potential to help the healing process in the body. Here are some benefits that may be obtained from turmeric:
● Osteoarthritis. Turmeric is suspected to help reduce pain in patients with osteoarthritis, a condition that causes joints become painful, stiff, and lose flexibility. A study suggests turmeric performance is comparable to that of ibuprofen in dealing with osteoarthritis. If you want to try to reduce the pain due to osteoarthritis, you can consume turmeric extract dose 500 mg twice a day.
● Itchy skin. Based on a preliminary study, itchy skin can be overcome by consuming curcumin-containing products that are combined by black pepper extract or herb pepper (long pepper).
● Skin rash. The condition of redness on the skin can be overcome by eating certain products containing turmeric chemicals
● Menstrual Problems. Surely you often see ads containing saffron drinks and claimed to overcome the pain of menstruation. True, according to some studies, eating turmeric extract can ease the pain. However, further research is needed to prove this point:
● Gastric ulcers. Some early studies suggest gastric ulcer pain can be overcome by eating turmeric.
Benefits of turmeric is not yet fully sure. But given there is already a research that gives a positive value on the usefulness, there is no harm in trying to treat this herbaceous plant. Even so, before eating turmeric as a drug consult first to the doctor.
