Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is a traditionally trusted and clinically proven Indian herb rhizome that is known to help boost immunity, reduce inflammation, improve skin health, and provide antiaging effects. It is usually grown in India and other Southeast Asian countries. The dried root of the Curcuma longa plant is ground into the distinctive yellow turmeric powder. The secret behind its impressive health benefits lies in Curcuminoids - a group of potent bioactive phytonutrient antioxidants found in turmeric root. Curcumin is what makes turmeric a “functional food,” - “food that has a potentially positive effect on health beyond basic nutrition.” Studies show that Curcuminoids are absorbed and utilized better by the body in the presence of small amounts of Piperine - a beneficial alkaloid derived from black pepper.
