Turmeric Root Powder

Turmeric Root (Curcuma longa) contains powerful antioxidants that neutralize free radicals that cause cell damage which can lead to chronic disease. Turmeric contains curcumin, a compound with strong anti-inflammatory properties that provide relief for arthritis, joint pain, and muscle stiffness. Turmeric's ability to improve the function of the lining of blood vessels helps to reduce heart disease. Turmeric is linked to improved brain function, especially in the areas of memory and attention span. It boosts levels of the brain hormone BDNF, which increases the growth of new neurons and fights various degenerative processes in the brain. By increasing BDNF levels, turmeric may be effective in delaying or even reversing many brain diseases and age-related decreases in brain function.
