Let’s talk about curcumin. Curcumin is the main polyphenol or phytonutrient in the spice turmeric.
Benefits of curcumin:
• It has powerful antioxidant properties
• It’s a powerful anti-inflammatory
• It can be effective for exercise-induced inflammation
• It may help with muscle soreness
• It may help with exercise recovery
• It may help with arthritis
• It may help with anxiety
• It has been shown to be effective for metabolic syndrome
• It may be effective for degenerative eye conditions
The only problem is that curcumin doesn’t absorb well in the body. It’s fat-soluble, which means unless you take it in a certain way, you probably won’t absorb much of it.
