Turmeric 600mg with Black Pepper 5mg Capsules

Turmeric Root Extract - more than just a culinary ingredient, this bright yellow spice also boasts several health-boosting properties. Ultimate Nutrition's Turmeric Root extract contains a standardised dose, meaning you can be assured of a consistent dose of the active ingredient curcumin in every capsule. Curcumin is known for its strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Curcumin works by reducing oxidative stress and inflammation caused by alcohol. Curcumin focuses more on relieving secondary hangover symptoms. It does not directly speed up alcohol breakdown. Drinking alcohol increases free radicals, which damage the liver and other tissues. However, curcumin can neutralize these free radicals. Alcohol also activates inflammation pathways, leading to headaches and tiredness. Correspondingly, curcumin can also block these pathways and reduce inflammation.

The active ingredients in turmeric include beneficial flavonoids called curcuminoids, which are plant-based antioxidants. They help fight cell damaging free radicals in the body. Native to South East Asia, turmeric is part of the ginger family, with a long history of traditional Ayurvedic use.
