Turmeric Power-Home Remedy for Cough & Cold with Turmeric

Do you know which is "The Spice that Ignites Your Body's Astonishing Immune System, 5 to 8 times stronger than vitamin E and stronger than vitamin C, this 'antioxidant breakthrough' may help boost your immunity, maintain normal cholesterol levels, and put the brakes on aging'.


None other than the "TURMERIC" we use everyday at home. One of the main healthful ingredients in turmeric is curcumin (a curcuminoid), which gives turmeric its yellow color. These curcuminoids deliver antioxidants that may be:


•5 to 8 times stronger than vitamin E -- and also stronger than vitamin C
•3 times more powerful than grape seed or pine bark extract
•Strong enough to scavenge the hydroxyl radical -- considered by many to be the most reactive of all oxidants


Believe it or not, the organic ingredients found in turmeric can help promote your healthy skin.
Curcuminoids support important blood and liver functions, healthy joints, and your overall well-being, which in turn helps promote radiant, supple skin.Turmeric has been considered to be ‘skin food' for thousands of years in India and other cultures. So, turmeric can act as your one-two punch against normal aging with its skin promotion and antioxidant capabilities -- outer beauty plus inner purity
