They\u2019ve also been linked to anti-inflammatory and weight-loss properties.

It contains powerful antioxidants, and also has strong anti-inflammatory effects. In fact, some studies have shown it to be more powerful than anti-inflammatory\u00a0drugs for conditions like arthritis. Studies also link turmeric to improvements in brain function, and reduced heart disease and cancer risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-very-best-for-you wp-block-embed-very-best-for-you\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"GwqwVFyfzh\"><a href=\"https:\/\/verybestforyou.com\/heal-yourself\/how-can-turmeric-heal-the-damaged-brain\/\">How Can Turmeric Heal The Damaged Brain?<\/a><\/blockquote>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"\u201cHow Can Turmeric Heal The Damaged Brain?\u201d \u2014 Very Best For You\" src=\"https:\/\/verybestforyou.com\/heal-yourself\/how-can-turmeric-heal-the-damaged-brain\/embed\/#?secret=GwqwVFyfzh\" data-secret=\"GwqwVFyfzh\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>CAYENNE PEPPER<\/strong><br>The active ingredient in cayenne pepper is called capsaicin, which has been shown to reduce appetite and increase fat burning in several studies. Capsaicin may also have anti-cancer effects, although this has only been studied in animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>GINGER ROOT<\/strong><br>Anyone who has experienced nausea\u00a0is probably aware of ginger\u2019s stomach-calming effects.\u00a0Ginger also has anti-inflammatory effects, and can help with pain management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>GARLIC<\/strong><br>Garlic has been used throughout history for its medicinal properties. We now know that many of these health effects are thanks to a compound called \u201callicin,\u201d\u00a0which gives garlic its distinctive smell. Garlic may help to combat colds and infections, reduce \u201cbad\u201d LDL cholesterol, and reduce blood pressure. Be sure\u00a0to let your garlic sit for 10 minutes after chopping to allow the allicin to fully develop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>CINNAMON<\/strong><br>This sweet and warming spice is delicious,\u00a0and particularly beneficial for diabetics. Its sweet flavor will not only help you to reduce the amount of sugar you need to add to your favorite dishes, it can also help to lower blood sugar levels.\u00a0It also has heart healthy benefits: lowering triglycerides, LDL, and total cholesterol in people with type 2 diabetes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>ROSEMARY<br><\/strong>Rosemary is a great herb for students, or anyone needing to boost memory and concentration while relieving stress! It contains high levels of antioxidants, and has anti-microbial properties as well. Studies have also shown that rosemary can help to neutralize some of the carcinogenic effects of grilled meat when it is used in a marinade (particularly when mixed with red wine!)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many studies have also shown the potential healing power of spices and herbs, as well as their usefulness in the treatment of a variety of disorders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2201,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"tdm_status":"","tdm_grid_status":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1776,25],"tags":[2775,2774,2768,2772,2770],"class_list":["post-2002","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-herbs-spices","category-home-remedies","tag-cinnamon","tag-ginger","tag-herbs","tag-home-remedies","tag-turmeric"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/verybestforyou.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2002","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/verybestforyou.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/verybestforyou.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/verybestforyou.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/verybestforyou.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2002"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/verybestforyou.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2002\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2226,"href":"https:\/\/verybestforyou.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2002\/revisions\/2226"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/verybestforyou.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/2201"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/verybestforyou.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2002"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/verybestforyou.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2002"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/verybestforyou.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2002"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
