Being Healthy- One of My Favorite Tips for Overall Health ( Part 1)

I believe an overall healthy lifestyle is so much better than yo-yo dieting. Maintenance is key! Here is a health tip that has made a big difference in my health over the years! I will be sharing more health tips in future posts so look out for more great tips!

Turmeric

It seems not a lot of people are aware of the many benefits of Turmeric. For me it has been a go to spice for years! I personally take it in pill form, because its quick. But you can cook or make a tea with the powdered form. I do use the powder form to create a DIY face mask which I will be sharing with you in a future post.

There are so many benefits to turmeric. I encourage you to do your own research. I have used it for inflammation!* Its a great alternative to ibuprofen. I once had Bursitis in my shoulder! It got to the point that it was so painful I could barely get dressed. I have a high tolerance to pain and I was in tears. I had been taking Ibuprofin every four hours and it was only getting worse! I started taking Turmeric, along with Bromelain, and the pain began to subside within one hour! I continued taking it every for hours for that day and every eight hours the following day. The Bursitis completely went away! And never returned!

I also suffer from dry eye which causes inflammation in my eyes. My eyes water really bad when this inflammation sets in. As soon as I start getting watery eyes I take a Turmeric and the inflammation is gone!

Turmeric is an antioxidant. Its packed with vitamins and minerals. Its a thermogenic so it supports your metabolism and helps burn calories. Its great for digestion. It supports healthy joints. It also helps neutralize substances that cause cellular stress. The curcumin found in Turmeric helps to maintain healthy cholesterol levels and helps to maintain healthy blood and liver functions.

   It promotes radiant skin! In some cultures its considered a “skin food.” It is wonderful for acne and acne scars. It normalizes skin tone and hyperpigmentation. Its great for skin elasticity!

So give Turmeric a try! See if it helps your overall health as it has helped mine!
