Fermented Turmeric/Curcumin Capsules
Much more than a culinary spice, and as ancient as it is widely used, Turmeric is associated with numerous positive health benefits due to its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. In Okinawa, Japan, home to the world’s largest population of centenarians, the consumption of fermented turmeric has been a long cultural practice due to it’s increased bioavailability/absorption. Curcumin, the potent antioxidant, and other natural enzymes are responsible for making Turmeric such a widely regarded super botanical.
Fermenting Turmeric increases the antioxidants and enzymes your body can absorb making it more effective to ingest. Turmeric has been used to ease many inflammation-related disorders including upset stomach, psoriasis, eczema, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, sciatica, and osteoarthritis. It not only nourishes our gastrointestinal tract but also supports our liver health.
Why Ferment, Spout or Activate?
Latest research has indicated that fermenting, activating or sprouting natural products enhances our bodies ability to consume their vitamins, minerals, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
Fermenting herbs and spices, nuts, etc have been shown to be more effective for increased antioxidant support, increased immunity, bone health, and intestinal health. These processes remove anti-nutrients such as phytates, which build barriers in our digestion from essential nutrients from these foods, making the foods more nutritiously available.
Fermentation increases the bioavailability, or the nutrient absorption capability in your body as it predigests the nutrition of the herbs and plants by breaking it down, or initiating the digestion process. Studies indicate that Fermenting, Sprouting, and Activating have the following benefits on our health:
• Improves microflora in our Digestive System
• Microbes found in these foods can improve aspects of immune functioning
• Improves amino acid, nutrients, and phytonutrient absorption levels in our bodies
• Potent quantities of pre and probiotics!
