I have been taking LifeGive Curcumin Enhanced for many years. I cannot remember when it reduced the inflammation in my legs, but now I believe it is one of many elements in my healthy Hippocrates Wellness Lifestyle. I love the LifeGive products because they are clean, raw and Vegan, and can be purchased online or in person at the Hippocrates Wellness Store.
Curcumin, a polyphenol (polyphenol definition - nutrients present in plants that provide specific health benefits) has been shown to target multiple signaling molecules while also demonstrating activity at the cellular level, which has helped to support its multiple health benefits. Research suggests that curcumin can help to decrease oxidative stress in the body, scavenges and neutralizes free radicals, benefit individuals with hyperlipidemia, metabolic syndrome, arthritis, and anxiety. Additionally, it supports cleansing detoxification, stimulates bile production increasing the body’s ability to digest fats and improves gut microflora which supports a healthy intestinal microbiome for superior digestive health. It may also help in the management of exercise-induced inflammation and muscle soreness thus enhancing recovery and subsequent performance in active people.
While there appears to be countless therapeutic benefits to curcumin supplementation, most of these benefits are due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. The active compound in the LifeGive Curcumin is piperine that has potent antioxidant effects, and when combined in a complex with curcumin has been shown to increase bioavailability of curcumin by 2000%.
