Turmeric - Curcumin
Curcumin supplementation reduces inflammatory markers and increases the level of endogenous antioxidants in the body.
It has been proven to have cardioprotective, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, nephroprotective, anticancer, hepatoprotective, immunomodulatory, hypoglycemic and antirheumatic effects.
In addition to curcuminoids, other active ingredients in turmeric include sesquiterpenes, diterpenes, and triterpenoids.
Among the various properties of curcumin, one of the most studied is its anti-inflammatory profile, which may be useful in both acute and chronic inflammatory conditions.
Its anti-inflammatory nature is used to increase tissue sensitivity to insulin and thus improve glucose metabolism parameters.
