Properties and Uses:
Turmeric protects the liver, is a strong anti-oxidant and is a powerful
anti-inflammatory. Most important- recent studies show that it prevents
Alzheimer's and helps mental health.
Curcumin, turmeric's active constituent, protects against free radical

by lowering histamine levels and increasing production of natural
cortisone by the adrenal glands. It protects the liver from a number of
toxic compounds.
