This article looks at the benefits of blending CBD Oil with turmeric, and whether people struggling with arthritis can benefit from using Turmeric and CBD Oil. What is Turmeric? Turmeric is a spice that comes from the curcuma longa plant, a perennial in the ginger family that is native to Southeast Asia. It is also sometimes referred to as Indian saffron or the golden spice. The underground stem of the plant is used as a culinary spice as well as in traditional medicine. The yellow colour of turmeric comes from curcumin which is one of its major components. This bright yellow colour of processed turmeric has inspired many cultures to use it as a dye. Turmeric is also a major ingredient in curry powder and is often used to flavour or colour curry powders, mustards, butters, and cheeses. The Health Benefits of Turmeric In Ayurveda, the traditional practice of medicine developed over 3,000 years ago in India, turmeric is recommended for a variety of health conditions such as inflammation and chronic pain. Turmeric is also used in Eastern Asian medical systems such as traditional Chinese medicine. Western medicine has started to study the benefits of turmeric as a pain reliever and healing agent. Although more robust research is required to validate its health benefits, turmeric is currently promoted as a dietary supplement for a variety of conditions including arthritis, respiratory infections, liver disease, and digestive disorders. Because of its possible ant-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties, turmeric is also used by some as a treatment for various skin diseases and as an anti-ageing supplement. Most of the potential health benefits of turmeric is credited to curcumin, its primary active component. Curcumin is believed to be a natural antioxidant that offers anti-inflammatory benefits. Is Turmeric Good for Arthritis? Arthritis is an inflammatory disorder that commonly causes discomfort, pain, and inflammation in the joints. It can restrict movement and have a considerable impact on a person’s well-being and quality of life. There are many different forms of arthritis with the most common form being osteoarthritis, while other forms include psoriatic arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Turmeric shows promise as a treatment for arthritis due to the purported anti-inflammatory properties of its main component, curcumin. Results of a study on the efficacy of turmeric extracts and curcumin for alleviating the symptoms of joint arthritis, suggests that curcumin improved joint function measured by morning stiffness, movements, and other clinical assessments in comparison with a placebo group. However, the study was not large enough to produce definitive results to indicate the fundamental improvement of arthritis symptoms. In another study, the effectiveness of turmeric for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis was compared to that of an anti-inflammatory drug called diclofenac. The results of the studies showed that curcumin has similar efficacy to diclofenac, but demonstrated better tolerance among patients with knee osteoarthritis. This shows curcumin’s potential as an alternative treatment option in patients who are intolerant to the side effects of anti-inflammatory drugs. Is CBD Oil Good for Arthritis? While CBD Oil is not a proven cure for arthritis, more people are exploring its potential to ease tension and discomfort in their bodies. CBD Oil may help people with arthritis to relax, unwind and develop a more positive relationship with their body. CBD Oil is most effective when it is incorporated into daily rituals, several of which are suggested to help people with arthritis. For instance, the use of CBD may be combined with Yoga to improve suppleness and help reduce feelings of physical and mental tension.
