Turmeric, a plant native to India, has long been used in Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine. In ancient times, this herb was commonly used for digestive issues from gastritis to acid reflux. This is because Turmeric can increase mucus production which, in turn, heals and protects your gastrointestinal tract. For that same reason, it was traditionally used to also heal nausea. Turmeric was also commonly used as an anti-inflammatory. Because of this, it may aid in conditions ranging from inflammatory skin conditions to asthma.
Turmeric contains curcumin which is also being researched for a wide range of ailments from cancer prevention to anti-inflammatory conditions. Curcumin has been found to be one of the great anti-inflammatory constituents. This makes it wonderful for countering chronic inflammation, high cholesterol, asthma, or even inflammatory skin conditions.
Topically, it has traditionally been used as an effective antimicrobial making it a top choice for anti-fungals. You will even find it in my anti-fungal salve as well.
Some research has shown it also has anticoagulant properties making it a natural blood thinner. Because of these studies, it is not recommended for those who are on blood thinners.
