    • Can support healthy brain function

    Curcumin has one of its main effects by blocking NF-kB a potent inflammatory molecule behind many chronic diseases.

    It is also a potent antioxidant and helps to boost the body's own antioxidant defences. It has also been shown to reduce heart disease, risk of Alzheimers disease, arthritis and help delay ageing.

    You'll know turmeric or curcumin supplements are working if you experience a noticeable reduction in inflammation-related symptoms, such as joint pain or stiffness, along with an overall improvement in wellbeing.

    Did you know?

    1

    Curcumin is best known for its powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. It can inhibit molecules known to play major roles in inflammation, which makes it a subject of interest for treating conditions like arthritis and other inflammatory disorders. Its antioxidant properties also help in neutralizing free radicals, compounds that can cause damage to body cells and contribute to chronic diseases.

    2

    Curcumin has been shown to cross the blood-brain barrier and may have neuroprotective properties. It can increase the levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a type of growth hormone that functions in the brain. Low levels of BDNF are linked to various brain disorders, including depression and Alzheimer’s disease, and curcumin's ability to boost BDNF levels suggests potential benefits for brain health and function.

    3

    Research has indicated that curcumin can affect cancer growth, development, and spread at the molecular level. Studies have shown that it can contribute to the death of cancerous cells and reduce angiogenesis (growth of new blood vessels in tumors) and metastasis (spread of cancer). However, more research is needed to fully understand its role in cancer treatment and prevention.
