2. Protects your brain

Researchers have discovered that curcumin positively influences the levels of BDNF and may help reverse certain brain diseases or age-related decline of our brain functions.

Curcumin, a component of turmeric, is a powerful antioxidant. Antioxidants are substances that help protect your body from unstable molecules that can damage cells.These benefits are only the tip of the iceberg of what turmeric can do for you.

Research studies have shown that eating turmeric on a daily basis  helps in releasing of bile which is believed to help in digestion of food.

Curcumin has shown to  prevent blood clotting, and remove plaque build-ups in the arteries. In a study published in the journal Biological and Pharmaceutical Bulletinin 2011, researchers from Niigata University of Pharmacy and Applied Life Sciencesin Japan found that three weeks of supplementation with the turmeric compound curcumin significantly improved cardiac health in male rats who had been given an injection to induce an autoimmune disease of the heart.

6. Soothes symptoms of Arthritis

A small 2012 study of RA patients showed that a curcumin product worked better on joint pain and swelling than a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) called diclofenac.

Curcumin belongs to this group and it is one of the most potent therapeutic agents belonging to turmeric. Free radicals and inflammation are believed to play a major role in aging and curcumin affects both.

Turmeric also boosts the natural production of bile, shrinks engorged hepatic ducts, and improves overall function of the gallbladder, another body-purifying organ.
