11 reasons why Turmeric is AWESOME and used in INDIA right before the bride gets married!! ~Modhani~

1. Cancer prevention and treatment

Studies show the frequent intake of turmeric to lower rates of leukemia, breast, prostate, lung, and colon cancer. This is thanks to the phytonutrient Curcumin, which evidence suggests can prevent tumours from forming and help slow the spread of cancerous cells.

2. Anti-inflammatory

Turmeric is very helpful in managing the symptoms of chronic inflammatory diseases like osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Those who consume it on a regular basis have been shown to experience noticeable relief from moderate to mild joint pain as well as joint inflammation.

3. Improves liver functioning

Turmeric acts as a natural liver detoxifier because it increases the production of vital enzymes, which break down and reduce toxins in the body. Turmeric also is believed to invigorate and improve blood circulation. All of these factors support stronger liver health.

4. Cardiovascular protection

Curcumin has beneficial effects on several factors known to play a role in heart disease. It helps improve the function of the endothelium, which is the lining of the blood vessels, and it also reduces inflammation and oxidation.

5. Lowers cholesterol

Research has proven that simply using turmeric as a food seasoning can reduce cholesterol levels. WOW!! now thats awesome!! 

6. Protects against Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia

Brain inflammation is suspected to be one of the leading causes of cognitive disorders. Turmeric supports overall brain health by aiding in the removal of plaque build-up in the brain and improving the flow of oxygen. It therefore boosts brain power and lowers risk of brain disease.

7. Antioxidant

Due to its chemical structure, Curcumin is a potent antioxidant that can neutralize free radicals and also block them from entering your body in the first place. 

8. Antidepressant

Studies have shown that Curcumin has incredible benefits against depression. In one controlled trial, sixty patients were randomized into three groups. One group took Prozac, another group took a gram of Curcumin, and the third group took both Prozac and Curcumin. After six weeks, Curcumin had led to improvements that were similar to Prozac. 

9. Weight management

Turmeric can be very helpful in maintaining an ideal body weight. A component present in turmeric helps increase the flow of bile, an important component in the breakdown of dietary fat. Those who wish to lose weight or treat obesity and other associated diseases can benefit from having one teaspoon of turmeric powder with every meal.

10. Controls diabetes

Turmeric helps moderate insulin levels, improves glucose control and increases the effect of medications used to treat diabetes.  Another significant benefit is its effectiveness in helping reduce insulin resistance, which may prevent the onset of Type-2 diabetes.

11. Super Good for Skin

In India, this is the reason why there is this special ritual and celebration right before the bride is fully decorated and all set to get married!! It gives your skin the typical 'golden' color as defined that of the goddesses.
