What is Inflammation?
Inflammation is a protective tissue response by which the body’s white blood cells’ reaction protects us from infection from foreign organisms, such as bacteria and viruses. Some diseases, called Autoimmune Diseases, like Arthritis (inflammation in the joints), the immune system, which is the body’s defense system, trigger an inflammatory response when there are no foreign invaders to fight off. Therefore the body’s normally protective immune system causes damage to its own tissues as if these tissues are somehow infected or abnormal.
Classical signs of inflammation that you may recognize:
• Redness
• Swelling
• Heat radiating from swollen joints Sleep disturbances
• Pain
• Stiffness
• Loss of function
What can you do naturally?
Turmeric is a member of the ginger family. Curcumin is the yellow pigment of turmeric (Curcuma longa) and is the spice that gives curry its yellow colour. It has been cultivated in India, China, Indonesia, and other tropical countries for over 5000 years. Many traditional cultures not only have used this for thousands of years as a spice, but also revere this natural medicine in the Ayurvedic and traditional Chinese systems of medicines where it has been used as an anti-inflammatory agent, and in the treatment of numerous conditions, including depression, digestive disturbances (flatulence, colic, and cramps), liver problems, menstrual difficulties, trauma, and heart ailments. Turmeric poultices were often applied locally to relieve inflammation and pain.
In 1815, Harvard scientists Vogel and Pelletier identified Curcumin. In 1949, the medical journal “Nature” published the first biological characteristic of Curcumin after it was shown in an experiment to be active against strains of disease-causing organisms including Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella paratyphi, and Mycobacterium. Recently in the 1970s, science has started to back up what these traditional cultures have known for a long time… it really does contain bioactive compounds with powerful medicinal properties. These compounds are called curcuminoids, the most important of which is Curcumin, which became the subject of intense scientific investigation as three independent groups discovered Curcumin had a broad range of actions, including powerful anti-inflammatory, a very strong antioxidant, cholesterol lowering, and anti-diabetic activities. Even though with the many valued health benefits, it is difficult for the body to absorb.
So what’s the solution?
There is one unique product, which is a natural Curcumin preparation that utilizes advanced techniques, a proprietary dispersion technology to create microscopic particles dispersed in a colloidal suspension for better absorption. This unique Curcumin is 300 times more bioavailable than regular Curcumin powder, ensuring a therapeutically effective level in the blood. Detailed absorption studies have proven that CurcuminRich Theracurmin is the best-absorbed form of Curcumin on the market.
“Theracurmin represents a major scientific breakthrough and is the #1 absorbed form of Curcumin. ‡ Finally the powerful health benefits of Curcumin can be fully realized!” – Dr. Michael Murray, Co-author of The Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine
