Curcuma longa root also known as the common spice curcumin or turmeric, has been studied widely for nearly 4000 years in both traditional Chinese medicine and Ayurvedic medicine. It is well known for its multitude of medicinal properties. Laboratory studies and clinical trials indicate that it is a potent anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, insulin-regulating, anti-aging and mood stabilizing botanical. Studies and anecdotal evidence suggests it may be effective in those with indigestion, bloating, gas and heartburn. There is preliminary evidence that suggests it may be indicated in heart conditions as well.
Dose: 1 - 3 droppers daily

Contraindications: Although generally considered safe when taken as directed, large doses of turmeric may cause stomach upset or in rare cases, ulcers. Turmeric should be avoided if taking anticoagulant medication such as warfarin or heparin or on daily doses of other non-steroidal anti-inflammatories such as aspirin, ibuprofen or naproxen as it may increase the chance of bleeding. People with diabetes or gallstones and pregnant or nursing women should not take turmeric extracts without first consulting with a medical doctor.
