SPICE up your Life with Turmeric for Inflammation, Pain & Brain Fog

Heal Your Body

Did you know that the secret to fighting inflammation might have been hiding in your kitchen cabinet all along?

Meet turmeric, the golden spice that's responsible for giving curry its iconic colour, also packs a serious health punch. From joint pain relief to boosting brain health and banishing brain fog, this vibrant spice adds more than just colour to your life. It’s quite literally – HOT STUFF. Let’s dive into why!

Turmeric 101: The Lowdown

Turmeric hails from the Curcuma longa plant's root, a perennial ginger family member. This vivid yellow spice has been a staple in Asia for centuries, used in cooking, fabric dyeing, cosmetics, and traditional medicine in China and India. The star player here is curcumin, turmeric's primary active ingredient, which lends the spice its yellow tint and boasts a ton of health benefits. Curcumin is an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory powerhouse. Researchers are exploring its potential in tackling diseases where inflammation plays a crucial role - think arthritis, IBS, ulcerative colitis, heart disease, skin conditions like psoriasis, Alzheimer's and even cancer.

It’s a Natural Inflammation Fighter

Inflammation is a natural response of our immune system, protecting our bodies from injury, infection, or other harmful stimuli. However, when inflammation becomes chronic, it can contribute to a variety of aforementioned health problems. By addressing inflammation, we can potentially prevent or alleviate these conditions and lead healthier, happier lives. Curcumin, or the secret to turmeric’s anti-inflammatory prowess, has been shown to inhibit the activity of certain enzymes and proteins that promote inflammation, effectively helping to reduce the associated negative symptoms of pain, swelling, discomfort and even depression.

Turmeric: Brain Food for Thought?

How about whipping up a curry for dinner tonight to lift your spirits? Curcumin has shown promise in improving depression and mood, and lowering symptoms of anxiety in multiple trials! Since curcumin can cross the blood-brain barrier, reduce inflammation and prevent protein plaque build-up in the brain, it may act as a potent brain booster and protector against neurocognitive decline and diseases such as Alzheimer’s and dementia. One study even found that consuming curcumin can improve attention, working memory, language and executive function over time. Bye-bye, brain fog!

A Rival to Anti-Inflammatory Drugs for Joint Pain Relief

Traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine has long used turmeric to treat arthritis. Arthritis is a condition which causes inflamed and stiff joints which can be really painful. While prescription medications can be helpful, they often come with a host of negative side effects. The good news is that research suggests that turmeric extract can reduce joint pain associated with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. One study even compared its effectiveness to an anti-inflammatory drug called diclofenac (without the side effects).

When you combine turmeric with the MSM (methylsulfonylmethane), another potent natural compound that’s famous for its joint-healing and inflammation-busting properties, you’re on to a winner! MSM not only reduces inflammation in joints but also protects your cartilage from degradation, improves range of motion, physical function, and reduces exercise-related muscle damage. Oh, and it may even make your hair grow faster! That's why I've reformulated my inflammation-busting product SPICE to include MSM for maximum pain relief and joint-healing properties.

How to Get the Most Out of Turmeric

This warming spice can also be added to soups, stews, casseroles, dips, rice, vegetables, tofu, cheese sauce, hummus, pancakes and even smoothies. Even better, brew yourself a creamy turmeric latte with MCT Powder and a tablespoon of Collagen for the ultimate health-boosting drink. Or, if you’re short on time and prefer to keep it simple, you can take it as a supplement in the form of SPICE.


But wait! To get maximum benefits from curcumin, pair it with its best friend – black pepper. Our bodies don't readily absorb most of the curcumin in turmeric, but when paired with black pepper, turmeric's health benefits get a serious upgrade. Piperine, a compound found in black pepper, boosts the absorption of curcumin by up to 2000%! So, if you’re cooking with turmeric, make sure to add a sprinkle of black pepper to boost its effectiveness.
