Tumeric, also called Indian saffron, is a yellow spice. Turmeric has a lot of properties, it is indeed one of the most powerful natural anti-inflammatory substances all over the world, then it is able to inhibit the growth of cancer cells by making easy their apoptosis. It seems also to play an important role against neurodegenerative diseases.
Among people who are used to eat turmeric the number of persons affected by Alzheimer illness is smaller than people who don’t eat this root. This property has been demonstrated by studies performed by the Institute of Neuroscience and Medicine in Jülich, Germany, and published in September 2014 on the scientific journal “Stem Cell research & Therapy
I would like to say also that the best to eat turmeric in order to preserve its properties is mixing a teaspoon of turmeric powder with a teaspoon of olive oil and some ground black pepper. You can use this mix as a dressing for salads.
