Orlando, FL — August 24, 2015 - Lupus is an inflammatory, autoimmune condition that takes place when the immune system attacks and destroys the tissues and healthy organs. As a result, different parts of the body, such as the heart, skin, lungs, blood cells, brain, and joints, are affected. The good news is that there is a natural ingredient believed to be helpful for fighting the condition.
Turmeric is potentially beneficial for lupus. There are four types of lupus namely: the systemic lupus erythmatosus, neonatal lupus, cutaneous lupus, and drug-induced erythematosus. Unfortunately, it is hard to diagnose, because its symptoms are pretty much the same as other ailments.
According to statistics, there are nearly 1.5 million individuals in the United States who have lupus. There is also an estimated number of 5 million people around the world who suffer from the condition.
Symptoms of lupus include butterfly facial rashes on the cheeks, joint pain, fatigue, shortness of breath, fever, dry eyes, skin lesions, chest pain, and confusion. Sufferers do not typically suffer from identical symptoms. Women are more prone to the condition as well as those who take certain medications.
As mentioned, lupus is an inflammatory condition, and it can potentially be remedied by anti-inflammatory agents. Turmeric contains a phytochemical called curcumin, which contains antibacterial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties, among others.
The anti-inflammatory benefits of turmeric have been widely studied. However, they have long been recognized for centuries. As a matter of fact, turmeric has been used for thousands of years in traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine.
Curumin can act as an anti-inflammatory agent. It is believed to significantly help regulate the causes of inflammatory conditions in the body such as: the adhesion molecules, transcription factors, protein kinases, redox statuses, and enzymes. Thus, curcumin is a potentially attractive supplement for the treatment of lupus and pulmonary, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases.
When the immune system breaks down, it could lead to a variety of infections and autoimmune diseases. These ailments can include IBD, type 1 diabetes, systemic lupus erythromatosis, myasthenia gravis, myocarditis, and uveitis.
There are several herbal supplements that are widely recommended to fight autoimmune diseases. Supplements are generally considered inexpensive, safe, and effective alternatives. Curcumin is one of the supplements that is believed to be very helpful for autoimmune diseases.
Curcumin is not just recognized for the myriad of therapeutic benefits it may offer, but also for its low bioavailability. Having low bioavailability, its absorption inside the body is limited. The most recommended curcumin supplements are those that contain black pepper extract such as BioPerine, which is a bioavailability enhancing ingredient (www.amazon.com/Turmeric-Curcumin-BioPerine-Extract-Vegetarian/dp/B00VSVKJ8I).
