Why Curcumin (Turmeric) Is Worth Its Weight In Gold

Curcumin (Turmeric) is worth its weight in gold

Not financially! But, this inexpensive golden spice has an impressive list of well-studied health benefits, for something so freely available in any supermarket, and there’s a reason it gets a place in “Dr. Greger’s Daily Dozen”, right up there with things like “leafy greens” and “berries” when it comes to superfoods.

Let’s do a quick run-down:

• It fights inflammation, and thus helps fight many diseases where inflammation is a factor (ranging from atherosclerosis to arthritis to Alzheimer’s and more)
• It has powerful antioxidant effects too
• It boosts brain-derived neurotropic factor (BDNF) and thus improves memory and attention
• It helps protect against heart disease…
• …and can give a 65% decreased risk of experiencing a heart attack
• It can help prevent cancer, and reduce cancerous lesions by 40%
• It’s also good against depression
• It even slows aging

In short, it’s—like we said—worth its weight in gold.

Quick advice though before we move on…

If you take curcumin with black pepper, it allows your body to use the curcumin around 2,000% better. This goes whether you’re cooking with both, or take them as a supplement (they’re commonly sold as a combo-capsule for this reason).
