Dr. Josh Axe: Health Benefits of Turmeric | Healing Herb and Anti-Inflammatory

Health Benefits of Tumeric: In this video, I want to share with you the incredible benefits of turmeric. There are over 6000 clinical studies proving turmeric to be the #1 healing herb today. The reason turmeric is so beneficial is because it contains an active compound called, curcumin, that is highly anti-inflammatory.

Some of the main benefits include:

1. Anti-inflammtory which helps relieve pain

2. Helps balance blood sugar levels

3. Anti-microbrial properties

4. Supports detoxification

5. Cleans out your arteries

A few ways to get more turmeric into your diet is by adding a tablespoon of turmeric and adding it to a glass of coconut milk as an herbal tea. You can find the recipe here: http://draxe.com/recipe/turmeric-tea-recipe/

Another way you can consume turmeric is by adding it to chicken breading, adding it to burger meat, salad, hummus, or simply in a capsule form.
