Turmeric is a commonly used spice and a member of the ginger family (Zingiberaceae). It is native to India and other parts of South Asia and is known for its bright orange-yellow color and its warm, slightly bitter flavor.
In traditional medicine, turmeric is believed to have a number of health benefits due to its high content of antioxidants and other compounds, such as curcumin. It is thought to have anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, and it is often used to treat a variety of conditions, including joint pain, digestive problems, skin disorders, and respiratory infections.
Most dietary supplements that utilize turmeric standardize their products based on a specific amount of curcumin (curcuminoids) per dose.
Additionally, turmeric supplements are often paired with black pepper extract (piperine) to improve oral absorption.
