Turmeric Ginger

(Fun fact:  part of the ginger family!)

Many high-quality studies show that Turmeric has major benefits for your body and brain. Turmeric contains curcumin, a substance with powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Curcumin can suppress many molecules known to play major roles in inflammation. Curcumin boosts levels of the brain hormone BDNF, which increases the growth of new neurons and fights various degenerative processes in your brain. Curcumin has beneficial effects on several factors known to play a role in heart disease. The curcumin in Turmeric fights against depression, delays aging, and has the potential to prevent Alzheimer’s.  Curcumin leads to several changes on the molecular level that may help prevent and perhaps even treat cancer.
