Turmeric, Ginger & Cinnamon: The Healing Power of Spices. Spices and herbs such as cinnamon, turmeric (curcumin), cilantro, oregano, cayenne, garlic, basil, lemon grass, milk thistle and ginger are super high in antioxidants, have potent anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and anti-aging benefits.
The root is harvested, cleaned, dried, and powdered to be used as a spice (turmeric gives curry its beautiful golden yellow color) and as a medicine. Traditionally, turmeric was used for nearly every health condition known - from smallpox to a sprained ankle. The reason for its health effects is the compound known as curcumin. Just as oranges are a source of vitamin C, turmeric is a source of curcumin. Today, we extract curcumin from turmeric to use as a natural medicine. But, a typical turmeric root contains about 2-5% curcumin, so taking an unstandardized, powdered turmeric root product means that very large amounts would be required to get a beneficial amount of curcumin. Additionally, curcumin is poorly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract.
