infusión de cúrcuma: descubre un potente antiinflamatorio natural

Turmeric tea: a potent antiinflammatory natural remedy

What is turmeric

Turmeric (curcuma longa) is a flowering plant of the ginger family Zingiberaceae. 

Native to Asia, its root has been used as a spice in cooking and for medical purposes in China and India for thousands of years. 

There has been an increased interest in turmeric tea in western countries over centuries, due to its powerful therapeutic effects – particularly when it comes to soothing joint pain and stomach disorders. 

What is turmeric good for? 

Let’s learn all about the health benefits of this colourful spice - which is also a powerful superfood.

THE BENEFITS OF TURMERIC TEA

The ground turmeric (curcuma) we so often use in cooking and when making turmeric teas (and such drinks as Golden Milk) provides a range of health benefits thanks to its main compound, curcumin. 

Curcumin is a poliphenolic pigment whose benefits go way beyond colouring currys and other culinary preparations. 

It possesses many scientifically-proven health benefits as it has powerful antioxidant, digestive, and anti-inflammatory properties, especially when preventing and relieving joint pain.

What are the health benefits of turmeric?

- Turmeric tea helps protect your joints 

Turmeric tea is commonly used for treating muscle or joint injuries, and in case of such inflammatory diseases as rheumatoid arthritis.

To help the body better absorb curcumin (turmeric’s antioxidant), it is often recommended to add a pinch of ground black pepper to it, as black pepper contains piperine, a natural substance that enhances its absorption.

- This anti-inflammatory spice has also been shown to relieve intestinal inflammations and pain related to ulcerative colitis, to fight gastritis and pancreatitis, and is also used in the treatment of postoperative edema.

- Turmeric tea is also commonly used to support healthy stomach and bowel function, as it helps fight against heartburn and acid reflux, protects stomach lining (in case of gastritis and gastric ulcers for example), and reduces abdominal bloating and gases. 

Likewise, turmeric helps protect the liver, promotes a healthy bile production and reduces nausea. 

It is also effective at avoiding dyspepsia (the feeling of being too full after or during a meal) and at preventing loss of appetite.

- Turmeric improves blood flow and helps treat circulation disorders, including cardiovascular diseases, thanks to its potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

It also has a powerful cholesterol-lowering effect and helps reduce LDL cholesterol levels and triglycerides.
