Top Health Benefits of Theracurmin® InflamResolv

You may be taking the best multivitamin Australia has to offer, but if you’re experiencing inflammation in your body, you’re probably looking for something more. Highly absorbable curcumin and concentrated omega-3 triglycerides from fish (more simply known as fish oils) are two of the most highly studied compounds for helping to manage inflammation and have a host of health benefits to offer, including:

1. RELIEVING MILD JOINT PAIN
Curcumin is the most active compound found in the popular yellow root spice, turmeric. Its anti-inflammatory properties have captivated researchers, making it one of the most highly studied plant substances in the world. In clinical trials, curcumin has been shown to decrease mild joint aches and pains and reduce the symptoms of mild osteoarthritis, especially in the knee joint.1-2
Curcumin works by helping to regulate pathways in the body that control cytokines3 and prostaglandins, which is the same way many anti-inflammatory medications work.
Standard curcumin is poorly absorbed by the body, so it’s important to look for forms of highly absorbable curcumin, like Theracurmin®, which is 27 times more bioavailable than ordinary curcumin. A better absorbed form means that more curcumin can target inflamed tissues in the body.
Fish oils have also been shown to have anti-inflammatory actions. Therefore, the combination of curcumin and fish oils may also have the potential to impact mild joint pain more significantly than when they are administered on their own.4

2. SUPPORTING CARDIOVASCULAR HEALTH
The omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil, particularly EPA and DHA, have been shown to play an important role in supporting heart health and cardiovascular system function.5,6

3. PROMOTING BRAIN HEALTH
Curcumin and fish oils can work well together to support brain function and cognitive health. One of the primary omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil, DHA, has been shown to maintain and support cognitive function7 and brain health.
Working memory and information processing have also been shown to improve with supplemented fish oils.8
Curcumin has been shown to cross the blood-brain barrier9 and appears to have beneficial effects on memory.10 In one study, curcumin supplementation was associated with significant improvements in working memory and recall in older adults.11

4. MAINTAINING EYE HEALTH
The retina is one of the most metabolically active tissues in the body and is highly vulnerable to oxidative stress. A review of evidence on the role of fish oils in eye health found that it appears have protective antioxidant actions and may also protect the retina against damage associated with age, light exposure and inflammation.12

5. ASSISTING MUSCLE RECOVERY
Many people experience post-exercise inflammation in the form of muscle and joint soreness, and this can become a barrier to consistent exercise.13 Curcumin has been found to reduce exercise induced muscle damage, especially in those new to exercise,14 and may be especially useful for people just starting out with training.
Theracurmin® InflamResolv, which includes both fish oils and highly absorbable curcumin, really does combine a ‘dream team’ of ingredients to help support heart, brain and eye health, at the same time reducing inflammation and improving exercise recovery.
