JMP Ginger-turmeric Teas Give Women Optimism in Endo, PCOS and Fibroid Fight
For many women, the very thought of an approaching menstrual period brings feelings of anxiety and frustration. The pain from this natural occurrence can be debilitating, causing unavoidable absences from work and school.
For those who suffer from Fibroids, Endometriosis and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) conventional treatment for pain associated with periods are lacking — treatment with hormonal birth control and other methods often provide only shortterm reprieve.
Women suffering from the crippling effects of period-pain, help is on the way! Your diet again proves to be important in sustaining, protecting, and healing you.
Research has indicated that the anti-inflammatory properties in Ginger and Turmeric have proven physiological and therapeutic effects on endocrine functions. Curcumin from turmeric has been studied extensively for its many roles in treating Endometriosis.
It has shown effectiveness in changing endometrial cells both outside of and within the endometrium. The results are varied, but the positive takeaway for sufferers is that it has been shown to result in cell death, prevention of their growth, and relief for the many symptoms women experience through its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
Two small studies carried out with women suffering from endometriosis showed a significant reduction in symptoms during the trial. It must be remembered that curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric, is easily made ineffective in the body unless it has a bio-enhancer such as Piperine. Piperine is the natural and isolated ingredient in peppers, which studies show aids in the absorption of curcumin in the bloodstream by up to 2000%.
Other studies have shown promise with the synergistic effect of curcumin and other plant bioactive compounds such as from ginger, in successfully treating the symptoms of endometriosis.
According to Dr. Rosalee M. Brown Behavioural Health Practitioner, Registered Dietitian, and Integrative Health Practitioner, “Women suffering from endometriosis - turmeric (curcumin) and ginger are important tools in your arsenal in this fight. It is safe to have it as often as possible, but ensure it is enhanced for effectiveness.”
She continued, “As a dietitian and integrative health practitioner, I provide guidance to my clients on a daily basis. The synergistic effect of our plant-derived nutrients and other bioactive compounds on disease prevention and management is unquestioned.”
