If you train a lot, get sick a lot (or want to prevent getting sick!), recover from an injury, or simply want to strengthen your immune system – add turmeric to your daily routine!
WHY -> Turmeric contains curcumin, a substance with powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Most studies used turmeric extracts that are standardized to include large amounts of curcumin.
Curcumin blocks NF-kB, a molecule that travels into the nuclei of cells and turns on genes related to inflammation. NF-kB is believed to play a major role in many chronic diseases.
WHAT YOU NEED: a cup with boiling hot water, a freshly squeezed lemon juice, a teaspoon of unfiltered apple cider vinegar, a dash of cayenne pepper.
It won`t be very delicious at first but this concoction is my go-to remedy when I need to boost my performance or boost my immune system.
I swear by the anti-inflammatory properties of turmeric. Give it a try and let me know how you feel!
