TURMERIC ROOT
Turmeric root (Curcuma longa) has been used in India for centuries as one of the most potent Ayurvedic herbs. Turmeric is known as a powerful anti-inflammatory and is revered for its ability to treat and prevent numerous inflammation-based diseases.
In regards to liver detoxification, Turmeric is another herb that supports phase 1 and phase 2 detoxification pathways.
Additionally, Turmeric is hepatoprotective and helps protect and detoxify liver cells (hepatocytes) from damage when exposed to these reactive species as they transform from lipid soluble to water soluble. This plays into the potent antioxidant effects of Turmeric root by donating itself to cancel out the free radical species that drive cellular damage and accelerate disease and ageing of the liver.
