Turmeric is a very popular supplement today because of its health-promoting properties. The active ingredients in Turmeric include beneficial bioflavonoids called curcuminoids, which are known to have powerful antioxidant properties. Traditionally used as a carminative and anti-inflammatory, Turmeric helps relieve dyspepsia (digestive disorders) and aids in digestion. Several research and trials have been conducted to validate the anti-inflammatory properties of curcuminoids on the stomach, intestines and joints.
