About Turmeric Supplements
Turmeric root is a spice that has been used for culinary and medical purposes for thousands of years. Turmeric grows much like ginger and galangal, which are from the same family of plants, where the root (rhizome) is consumed as a tea or in food. Though turmeric is typically used for its anti-inflammatory effects due to its high levels of natural curcuminoids (curcumin), it offers many more benefits for wellness and human health.
In 2017, the journal Foods reported that curcumin is useful for the management of anxiety, metabolic syndrome, oxidative stress and exercise-induced muscle soreness. So if you’ve been doing a lot of heavy squatting or deadlifting, Turmeric may help to take the sting out of the recovery process. As a strong natural anti-inflammatory, turmeric supplements may also be useful to alleviate chronic inflammatory conditions, such as osteoarthritis. This natural root may be helpful during weight loss programs and to keep stress levels minimised.
The phytochemical called curcumin found in turmeric root naturally has a poor bioavailability. This means that absorption of this compound from the intestine into the blood is low, with most curcumin ending up in the stool. Fortunately, Sporty's Health stock a range of turmeric supplements that have naturally been optimised to enhance absorption! For instance, black pepper, ultrasol (water-solubilising technology) or a phospholipid complex are used to significantly enhance bioavailability. Black pepper taken in combination with curcumin has been shown to increase absorption by a staggering 2,000%. And when it comes to aching joints or muscles, an increase in absorption means everything for you getting the most out of your supplement.
