Turmeric Extract Tincture

Some of the potential benefits of turmeric supplements include:
+Promotes a healthy response to inflammation: Turmeric is known for its powerful anti-inflammatory properties. It can help reduce inflammation in the body, which is beneficial for conditions such as arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and other chronic inflammatory conditions.
+Antioxidant benefits: Curcumin in turmeric (also known as circumin extract) has strong antioxidant properties, which help neutralize free radicals and protect the body from oxidative stress and damage.
+Joint health: Many people take turmeric supplements to help support joint health and occasional stiffness.
+Heart health: Turmeric may maintain heart health by supporting the cardiovascular system and through promoting a healthy response to inflammation.
+Digestive Health: Turmeric can aid in digestion and may help manage indigestion and bloating. It has been used traditionally to support liver function and bile production.
+Brain Health: Some studies suggest that turmeric may help improve cognitive function. Curcumin may increase levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a growth hormone in the brain
+Skin Health: Turmeric's calming antioxidant properties can benefit skin health, potentially helping with conditions like acne, eczema, and psoriasis.
+Immune System Support: Turmeric can support the body's immune response, making it a popular supplement for overall immune health.

While turmeric supplements offer these potential benefits, it's important to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new supplement regimen, especially if you have underlying health conditions or are taking other medications.

Our herbalist sources fresh North Carolina-grown turmeric root, which is extracted fresh in small batches with organic alcohol to create a potent, high-quality tincture. Compared with capsules or pills that, after being imported from other countries, may be months or years old, our turmeric extract is optimally fresh.

We recommend mixing the recommended dose of Turmeric Extract in a little bit of water or sparkling water. While it can be taken directly on the tongue, the flavor of the tincture can be a little intense without dilution. Turmeric Extract is also lovely when added to herbal mocktails, or it can be added to “golden milk.”

Curcumin is a compound found in turmeric, highly valued for inflammatory support. Isolated curcumin is very difficult for the body to absorb - you may have seen recommendations to take black pepper with curcumin to improve absorption. However, bioavailability of curcumin has been found to improve when taken with the rest of the compounds found in… turmeric!—the plant that it is extracted from. For that reason, we formulated our turmeric extract for improved absorption.

The botanical industry constantly tries to isolate beneficial plant compounds but we often see that the whole spectrum of compounds in a plant work synergistically - and balance each other out so we don’t have as many side effects. As herbalists, we believe that whole plant extracts are almost always the best form of an herb, for improved absorption and also because whole plants have multiple beneficial effects on the body rather than just one.
