(Medical-NewsWire.com, November 05, 2014 ) Portland, Oregon -- Curcumin sales are surging as more people with arthritis discover the botanical agent's ability to ease the pain of arthritis. A record number of individuals are choosing a curcumin supplement for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
"East Indian medical practitioners have known the benefits of curcumin for centuries," said VitaBreeze spokesperson, Michelle O'Sullivan. "Now that those in the Western world are aware of its many benefits, arthritis sufferers are utilizing it to great effect."
Curcumin is the active ingredient in the spice turmeric and is responsible for its many abilities. Thousands of clinical research studies have been conducted to determine how curcumin works in the human body. Results indicate that curcumin relieves inflammation, a major component of many joint, nerve and degeneration conditions.
While curcumin may be an effective anti-inflammatory, the body isn't able to utilize it well without the addition of a black pepper extract to aid in absorption. Medical professionals that have endorsed the use of curcumin advise a dietary supplement of 750mg and one that incorporates a black pepper extract for maximum absorption and effectiveness.
Some studies have determined that curcumin is as effective for pain relief as many of the popular pharmaceuticals currently prescribed. It is believed to work at the molecular level to inhibit the proteins and enzymes present in the inflammation response where it begins.
Research also suggests that curcumin is a natural antioxidant that attacks free radicals at the cellular level. Free radicals accumulate in the body where they cause damage to cells. When they're present in sufficient numbers, they cause more damage than the body can easily repair. It is believed that curcumin neutralizes free radicals, rendering them inactive while stimulating the body's natural repair mechanisms.
During their studies, researchers discovered some surprising properties associated with curcumin that they didn't anticipate. Curcumin was found to boost specific hormones within the brain. A deficit of those hormones has been associated with memory loss and neurological disease that includes Alzheimer's, and has been the impetus for further study.
With the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties available with curcumin, it's no surprise that sales are skyrocketing, particularly among consumers with arthritis and joint disease. Consumers claim the botanical relieves the inflammation present in arthritis to reduce swelling, pain and stiffness for better quality of life (http://www.amazon.com/Turmeric-Curcumin-Complex-BioPerine-Bio-availability/dp/B00JA4TLTI/).
