nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6272784/. Accessed 13 Jul. 2023.
Turmeric, that golden wonder-spice that's been jazzing up our meals for
centuries, is more than just a pretty face in the spice rack. This earthy,
slightly bitter spice has a backstory that's as rich as its color, and a list
of uses that would make a Swiss Army knife blush.
But while this is all very interesting, the real magic of turmeric lies in
its anti-inflammatory properties. The star of the show is curcumin, a
compound in turmeric that's been the subject of extensive research for
its powerful anti-inflammatory effects.

The Nrf2 pathway is like a stress sensor and the boss of the body's
antioxidant response. In simpler terms, it's the system your body
switches on when it needs to produce its own antioxidants. The active
ingredient in turmeric, curcumin, gets this pathway going by interact-
ing with Nrf2 mediators and influencing target genes.

TAKING TURMERIC
One great thing about turmeric is that you can easily get the benefits
just by adding it to your food. Turmeric powder can be added to hot
drinks, smoothies, soups, and savory dishes of all kinds.
One thing to keep in mind is that curcumin is a bit of a diva and isn't
easily absorbed into the bloodstream. But pair it with black pepper,
and voila! Piperine, a natural substance in black pepper, increases the
absorption of curcumin by a whopping 2,000%.13

Turmeric usually doesn't cause serious side effects. Some people may
experience mild side effects such as stomach upset, nausea, dizziness,
or diarrhea. These side effects are more common at higher doses.
While turmeric is generally safe for most people, there are certain
situations where it should be used with caution or avoided altogether.
Individuals with gallbladder disease or a known bile duct obstruc-
tion should avoid turmeric as it can worsen the condition. Those on
blood-thinning medications, such as warfarin, should be cautious, as
turmeric can strengthen the effects of these drugs, increasing the risk
of bleeding. If taking any prescribed medication, it is recommended to
talk to your doctor first.
Turmeric may also lower blood sugar levels, so people with diabetes or
those on medication to control blood sugar should monitor their levels
closely. Lastly, it's recommended to avoid turmeric during pregnancy
as it could stimulate the uterus or promote a menstrual period.
FINAL THOUGHTS
So, there you have it. Turmeric, with its vibrant color, unique flavor,
and impressive health benefits, is truly a golden spice. Its anti-inflam-
matory properties make it a valuable addition to our diet. So, the next
time you're whipping up a meal, don't forget to sprinkle in some of this
magical spice for a healthy and flavorful twist.
Ginger, a spice that has been warming up our dishes for centuries, is
a culinary superstar with a rich history and a multitude of uses that
extend far beyond the kitchen. This knobby, root-like spice, with its
distinctive aroma and slightly pungent flavor, is a staple in many cui-
sines around the world.
Ginger has been cultivated for so long that tracing its exact origins is a
bit like trying to trace your family tree back to the Stone Age. However,
it's believed to have been first domesticated on the islands of Southeast
Asia. It was one of the first spices exported from the Orient during the
spice trade and was used by the Ancient Greeks, Romans, Chinese, and
Indians.

Caution also when using concomitantly with other herbs that possess
anticoagulant effects (garlic, ginkgo biloba, Panax ginseng, red clover and
turmeric), as it is more likely to cause excessive bleeding or bruising.
Ginger is safe for use in pregnancy although best to use smaller doses.
FINAL THOUGHTS
Ginger, with its unique flavor, impressive health benefits, and long
history of medicinal use, is truly a spice worth celebrating. Its anti-in-
flammatory properties, in particular, make it a valuable addition to our
diet. So, the next time you're cooking, don't forget to add a dash of this
magical spice for a healthy and flavorful twist, and, most of all, for its
anti-inflammatory benefits.
Boswellia, a plant that has been praised for its medicinal properties for
thousands of years, is a true gem of the botanical world. This humble
plant, also known as Indian frankincense, has a rich history and a
plethora of uses that extend far beyond its aromatic resin.
[17] “Boswellia serrata, a potential antiinflammatory agent: an overview.” May-Jun. 2011, https://www.ncbi.
nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3309643/. Accessed 12 Jul. 2023.
The resin from the Boswellia tree is not only known for its fragrance,
but it also contains boswellic acids, which have been shown to have
strong anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties. They inhibit
the production of leukotrienes, which are molecules that can cause
inflammation in the body.18
Studies have shown that Boswellia can reduce inflammation and pain
in people with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, two common
types of arthritis characterized by chronic inflammation.1920

When purchasing, look for a supplement that does not contain ad-
ditives or fillers and one that is highly bioavailable. To ensure good
quality, check the label for third party certification.
Despite its myriad benefits, Boswellia is not without its side effects.
Some people may experience stomach pain, acid reflux, skin rashes,
nausea, and diarrhea. It's also not recommended for pregnant women
as it can stimulate blood flow in the uterus and pelvis. It can accelerate
menstrual flow and may induce miscarriage in pregnant women.
FINAL THOUGHTS
In conclusion, Boswellia, with its rich history, diverse uses, and im-
pressive health benefits, is truly a remarkable plant.
Algae oil
BACKGROUND
Algae oil, the new kid on the health and wellness block, is making
waves and for good reason. This unique oil, derived from marine algae,
is a powerhouse of nutrients and has countless uses and benefits.
The process of extracting oil from algae is quite fascinating. Algae are
grown in large open ponds or closed photobioreactors, where they are
exposed to sunlight. Once the algae have grown sufficiently, they are
harvested and processed to extract the oil.
[23] “Microalgae for biodiesel production and other applications: A review.” Jan. 2010, https://www.science-
direct.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1364032109001646. Accessed 12 Jul. 2023.
ANTI-INFLAMMATORY BENEFITS
Moreover, DHA and EPA are like the dynamic duo for heart health,
Despite its many benefits, it's important to note that not all algae oils
are created equal. The quality of algae oil can vary depending on the
type of algae used, the extraction process, and the purity of the oil.
Therefore, it's crucial to choose a high-quality algae oil supplement to
reap the maximum benefits.
When shopping for an algae oil supplement, always read the label care-
fully. Since both EPA and DHA confer unique and important benefits

The unsaturated fats in algae oil supplements can oxidize over time
and go rancid. Be sure to store gels or capsules in a cool, dry place,
refrigerate liquid supplements, and discard any that smell bad.
While algae oil is generally considered safe and beneficial for most
people, it's not without potential side effects. Some individuals may
experience digestive discomfort, including bloating, gas, or diarrhea,
particularly when first introducing algae oil into their diet. Additionally,
because algae oil is a source of fat, it can contribute to weight gain if
consumed in excess. It's also worth noting that while rare, some people
may have an allergic reaction to algae oil.
Algae oil is not only safe in pregnancy and lactation, but beneficial.
Take caution in people with low blood pressure or irregular heartbeat.
High doses may increase the risk of bleeding. Omega-3 supplements
can affect anticoagulant medications like warfarin – avoid taking in
combination with other medications that can also cause bleeding.
FINAL THOUGHTS
Algae oil, with its sustainable production, unique nutrient profile, and
impressive health benefits, is truly a superfood. Its anti-inflammatory
properties, in particular, make it a valuable addition to our diet. So,
whether you're drizzling it over your salad, using it in your cooking,
or taking it as a supplement, algae oil is a fantastic way to boost your
health, reduce inflammation, and support the planet.
Green tea, that humble leaf that's been steeped, sipped, and savored
for thousands of years, is more than just a hot beverage. It's a veritable
brew of history, interesting facts, and a plethora of uses that extend
beyond the teapot. So, grab a cuppa, sit back, and let's spill the tea on
green tea.
Our story begins in China, to 2737 BC. Picture this: Emperor Shen
Nung, chilling out under a tree, boiling some water. Suddenly, a gust
of wind sends leaves fluttering into his pot. Instead of throwing a royal
tantrum, he takes a sip and voila! Tea is born. Well, that’s at least how
the legend tells it.
Now, you might be thinking, "Isn't all tea just...tea?" Well, yes and no.
Green, black, and oolong tea all come from the same plant, Camellia
sinensis. The difference is in the processing. Green tea leaves are
quickly heated after picking to prevent oxidation, which helps them
retain their green color and high levels of beneficial compounds.
FUN FACT:
ANTI-INFLAMMATORY BENEFITS
The health benefits of green tea are largely attributed to its high
content of flavonoids, particularly catechins, which are potent anti-
oxidants. The superstar is epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which has
Green tea can also improve brain function, aid weight loss, lower the
risk of heart disease, and help prevent type 2 diabetes, all of which have
inflammation at their core.30 31 32 33 It's also good for the skin, thanks to
its anti-inflammatory and anti-aging properties.34
To reap the benefits of green tea, it's best to steep the tea leaves or tea
bag in hot water for about 3-5 minutes. You can drink it hot or cold, and
it can be consumed at any time of the day. However, it's best to avoid
drinking it on an empty stomach or before bedtime due to its caffeine
content.
Speaking of caffeine, while green tea is generally safe for most people,
it can cause side effects like headaches, sleep problems, and irregular
heartbeat in some people. It also contains tannins, which can increase
stomach acidity and cause stomach discomfort or nausea if consumed
on an empty stomach.
FINAL THOUGHTS
Green tea, with its rich history, and impressive health benefits, is truly
a remarkable beverage. Its anti-inflammatory properties, in particular,
make it a valuable addition to our diet. So, whether you're a tea con-
noisseur or just looking for a healthy beverage, green tea is definitely
worth a try.
The compound was first isolated in 1940 from the roots of white
hellebore, a plant used in traditional medicine, but it wasn't until the
1990s that interest in resveratrol truly took off.35 This was largely due
to the "French Paradox," a term coined to describe the low incidence of
heart disease in the French population despite their love for cheese and
butter, which was attributed to their regular consumption of red wine.36

TAKING RESVERATROL
Resveratrol can be taken in several ways. It's found in foods like red
wine, grapes, and berries, but to get a significant amount, you'd have
to consume these in large quantities. Therefore, many people opt for
supplements, which are available in capsule or tablet form.
The recommended dosage varies, but most studies have used doses
of 150-500mg per day. It's best to start with a low dose and gradually
increase it.
Adverse events for lower doses and shorter courses of treatment are
rare. Higher dosages (more than 1 g/day) may result in gastrointestinal
symptoms, including nausea, diarrhea, and abdominal pain.
Since high doses have been shown to stop blood from clotting in test
tubes, it’s possible it could increase bleeding or bruising when taken
with anti-clotting drugs, such as heparin or warfarin, or some pain
relievers.

Rosemary isn't just a pretty face with a nice scent. It's a health power-
house, especially when it comes to its anti-inflammatory properties.
This herb contains two potent anti-inflammatory compounds, car-
nosic acid and carnosol. They inhibit the production of inflammatory
chemicals, such as leukotrienes and prostaglandins, making rosemary
a natural ally against inflammation-related conditions like arthritis,
asthma, and inflammatory bowel disease.42

FINAL THOUGHTS
Rosemary is much more than just a fragrant herb. Its rich history,
myriad uses, and potent anti-inflammatory properties make it a truly
remarkable plant. Whether you're using it in your cooking, brewing
it into a tea, or diffusing it as an essential oil, rosemary is a versatile
herb that can benefit your health in many ways. However, as with any
supplement, it's important to use rosemary responsibly and be aware
of potential side effects and interactions.
Cat's Claw, or Uncaria tomentosa, is a vine that's been clawing its way
up the health charts for centuries. Native to the Amazon rainforest and
other tropical areas of Central and South America, this plant derives its
name from its hook-like thorns that resemble the claws of a cat.
The origins of Cat's Claw are as rich as the Amazon itself. The Inca
civilization was the first to discover its healing prowess, using it to treat
everything from arthritis and inflammation, to stomach ulcers and
dysentery. Fast forward to today, and this vine, with its feline-inspired
name, is still flexing its medicinal muscles in the modern world.
FUN FACT:
In modern medicine, cat’s claw is mostly known for its potent im-
mune-stimulating and anti-inflammatory effects. It contains several
compounds known as oxindole alkaloids, which have been shown to
stimulate the immune system. It's also rich in antioxidants, including
phenolic acids and flavonoids, which can help fight inflammation and
boost immune health.
[47] “Randomized double blind trial of an extract from the pentacyclic alkaloid-chemotype of uncaria to-
mentosa for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.” Apr. 2002, https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11950006/.

[48] “Cat's claw: an Amazonian vine decreases inflammation in osteoarthritis.” Feb. 2007, https://pubmed.

While Cat's Claw is generally considered safe for most people, it can
cause some side effects, including dizziness, nausea, and diarrhea. It's
also known to stimulate the immune system, so people with auto-
immune diseases or those taking immune-suppressing medications
should use it with caution.
Furthermore, Cat's Claw may slow blood clotting, so it's not recom-
mended for people with bleeding disorders or those undergoing sur-
gery. It's also not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women
due to a lack of safety data.
