What are the health benefits of turmeric?
The active ingredient in turmeric, curcumin, has significant anti-inflammatory properties so it is commonly used as a remedy toreduce inflammation. Also, it’s a skincare favorite spice because it contains vitamin C and antioxidants that protects the skin from sun damage and aging. Daily consumption (oral or applicable) is beneficial for your body, skin and hair.

Turmeric’s anti-fungal and antibacterial properties can treat scalp conditions and irritations such as dandruff, fungus, dryness, and itchiness. The spice creates a healthier environment on your scalp and promotes healthier hair as it reduces breakage and hair loss.
Prevents hair loss: Turmeric’s anti-inflammatory powers are a major boon to thinning hair, as it may stimulate growth. Most hair loss is caused at least on some level due to inflammation. Reducing inflammation, in turn, reduces the impact of pattern hair loss or directly inflammatory hair loss on the scalp and hair follicles.
Protects hair from environmental stressors: Free radicals can wreak havoc on your hair, scalp, and complexion, but one of the many reasons antioxidants like turmeric are so loved is because they fight them off. As a result, hair follicles are protected from damage by harmful molecules.
