encapsulated curcumin within organic nanoparticles and conducted in vivo pharmacokinetic studies and in situ intestinal perfusion, revealing improvements in the gut microbiota environment and alleviation of oxidative stress and inflammation caused by ROS
Studies show that curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric, is especially effective at decreasing pain caused by arthritis ( In fact, a review of 8 studies found that taking 1,000 mg of curcumin was as effective at reducing joint pain as certain pain medications in those with arthritis ( Another small study in 40 people with osteoarthritis showed that taking 1,500 mg of curcumin daily significantly reduced pain and improved physical function, compared with a placebo ( Ginger has also been shown to decrease chronic pain associated with arthritis, along with several other conditions ( For example, one 5-day study in 120 women noted that taking 500 mg of ginger root powder 3 times daily reduced the intensity and duration of menstrual pain ( Another study in 74 people found that taking 2 grams of ginger for 11 days significantly reduced muscle pain caused by exercise ( Support immune function Many people take turmeric and ginger at the first sign of sickness, hoping to enhance immune function and sidestep cold or flu symptoms
