Turmeric Benefits

Curcumin is a Natural Anti-Inflammatory Compound

Many scientists believe that low-level inflammation plays a major role in most Western diseases, which includes heart disease, cancer, metabolic syndrome, Alzheimer’s and various degenerative conditions. This is important because any substance that can fight against chronic inflammation can potentially prevent and even treat these diseases. Curcumin is a strong anti-inflammatory. Interestingly, it is such a strong anti-inflammatory that it matches some anti-inflammatory drugs, without the side effects.

Turmeric Dramatically Increases the Antioxidant Capacity of the Body

Due to its chemical structure, Curcumin can neutralize free radicals. It also boosts the activity of the body’s antioxidant enzymes.

May Lower the Risk of Heart Disease

Curcumin may reverse the steps in the heart disease process. Studies have suggested that curcumin leads to improvements in endothelial function. A study revealed that this substance is as effective as exercise. A group study revealed that 65% of people the in the group had a decreased risk of experiencing a heart attack in the hospital.

Turmeric Can Help Prevent (And Perhaps Even Treat) Cancer

Curcumin has been studied as a beneficial herb in cancer treatment. It has also been noted to affect the cancer growth, development and spread at the molecular level. Several studies revealed that it can assist in the death of cancerous cells and reduce angiogenesis (growth of new blood vessels in tumors) and metastasis (spread of cancer).

May Help With Arthritis

A study with people affected with rheumatoid arthritis, curcumin was more effective than an anti-inflammatory drug. Several studies have shown effects of curcumin on arthritis and noted improvements in various symptoms.

Contains a Substance that May Help Prevent Cancer

Raw ginger has 6-gingerol that is considered to have anti-cancer properties. Extract reduced inflammatory signaling molecules in the colon.

May Improve Brain Function and Protect Against Alzheimer’s Disease

Some studies suggest that antioxidants and bioactive compounds in ginger inhibit inflammatory responses occurring in the brain. Some evidence suggests that ginger can enhance brain function directly. Some animal studies also reveal ginger protecting against a decline in brain function due to age.

 

Pineapple Benefits

Contains Disease-Fighting Antioxidants

Pineapples are rich in flavonoids and phenolic acids. Many antioxidants in this fruit are bound. This allows the antioxidants to survive more difficult conditions in the body and produce longer lasting effects.

Its Enzymes Can Ease Digestion

Contain digestive enzymes known as bromelain. Their function is to break down molecules into their building blocks, such as amino acids and small peptides. Broken down molecules are more easily absorbed across the intestine. This may be helpful for people with pancreatic insufficiency, a condition when the pancreas cannot make enough digestive enzymes.

May Help Reduce the Risk of Cancer

Test-tube studies showed bromelain as a possible source to helping fight cancer. Two test-tube studies showed that bromelain suppressed the growth of breast cancer cells and stimulated cell death. There are other studies revealing bromelain suppressing cancer in the skin, bile duct, gastric system and colon, among other areas.

May Boost Immunity and Suppress Inflammation

Traditional medicine has used pineapples. This is due to them having a wide variety of vitamins, minerals and enzymes like bromelain that may collectively boost immunity and suppress inflammation. There are also studies showing bromelain reducing inflammation.

May Ease Symptoms of Arthritis
