Das goldgelbe Pulver mit dem markanten Aroma, ein zentraler Bestandteil traditioneller Gewürzmischungen Südasiens, wird seit Jahrhunderten nicht nur kulinarisch, sondern auch in der Ayurveda-Medizin aufgrund seiner vielseitigen gesundheitsfördernden Eigenschaften genutzt. Wissenschaftliche Studien bestätigen seine entzündungshemmende, antioxidative und potenziell krebsvorbeugende Wirkung. Doch kann Kurkuma auch eine bedeutende Rolle bei der Regulation des Körpergewichts spielen? Bringt die Supplementierung in Form standardisierter Kapseln messbare Ergebnisse in Bezug auf die Reduktion von Fettgewebe und die Verbesserung metabolischer Parameter?
Cucumbers and other edible mushrooms
Indian saffron is another name for a yellow, Indian spice. It is derived from long oyster bran, which, after being dried and given a spicy consistency, is used to give food a yellowish-orange colour. Turmeric has no characteristic flavor or aroma, which makes it possible to add it to both dessert and nutritious foods or beverages. The active and at the same time functioning natural ingredient of the oyster is curcumin.
Turmeric has slimming properties
Curcumin is a bioactive substance. It has a wide range of effects on the human body that may indirectly affect the acceleration of weight loss in people who follow the recommendations of proper nutrition. In 2015, interesting preliminary pilot studies were conducted on the action of curcumin as a substance that promotes the reduction of body weight in people with body weight and metabolic syndrome by promoting the formation and excretion of bile, which is involved in the digestion of fats consumed. In addition, a study of 44 people who took part in a diet that changed their lifestyle to a healthy weight gain.
Turmeric in the capsules
Unfortunately, the bioavailability of the natural curcumin contained in turmeric is low, so it is likely that a pharmaceutical product was used in the preliminary study. However, there are substances and forms of curcamines that are more absorbed in the small intestine, which are then used by the bloodstream to distribute the substance throughout the body.
Dose of turmeric
Turmeric in tablets should be used according to the manufacturer' s recommendations which should be included on the packaging of the supplement purchased. Please note that you should not exceed the recommended dose. In addition, you should check very carefully the source from which you decide to buy the supplement, preferably if it is a pharmacy.
Turmeric price
For 20 grams of turmeric as a spice pack we'll pay about PLN 1.53 depending on the company. For larger packages the prices are proportionally higher. The capsules are much more expensive than buying the spice. In the pharmacy we're paying about PLN 25 per 60 capsule. For the packaging of about PLN 6090 in online health food stores the prices range from PLN 50 to even PLN 300! Turmeric is a well-known spice in Indian cuisine.
