Turmeric and Black Pepper Mix
Spices | Seasonings | Gin Botanicals | Aromatic Herbs | Aromatic Salt
The combination of these two ancient spices, turmeric and black pepper, has been widely used in Ayurvedic medicine and herbal medicine. Curcuma, also known as Turmeric, has been studied extensively recently and its main active ingredient, Curcumin, has been shown to be a powerful anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-carcinogenic agent that helps the blood, liver, heart, immune system and joints. Black pepper, on the other hand, has an active ingredient called Piperine which has the ability to increase the bioavailability of other substances, allowing them to remain active in the body for longer. This allows them to be combined in supplements or medicinal substances to make them highly effective, for example in this mixture Piperine increases the bioavailability of Curcumin by up to 20 times, as well as having beneficial effects on the gastrointestinal tract and brain.
Curcumin in turmeric and piperine in black pepper improve health due to their anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and disease-fighting qualities. The piperine found in black pepper increases the absorption of curcumin, making it more readily available for use by your body. When combined, curcumin and piperine tend to have a greater effect on inflammation, digestion and pain reduction.
Turmeric and black pepper are considered safe and can be consumed without serious side effects by most people. Although they can be added to food and drinks, supplements usually provide the greatest benefit. As turmeric is fat-soluble, consuming it with fat can increase absorption. As piperine increases the absorption of curcumin in the body by up to 2,000%, combining the spices amplifies their effects.
