Stark Pharm curcumin is a natural antibiotic, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent

Antioxidants are substances without which the well-being of a modern person becomes many orders of magnitude lower than good. Antioxidant supplements are relevant for literally any adult, especially if he is involved in sports. Of course, it is better to give preference to antioxidants of natural origin: Stark Pharm curcumin is one of them. In the article, we will describe the effect and benefits of taking it, how the active component affects the state of the body, and how best to take it.

Curcumin is the main substance in the composition of the turmeric root, which is often used as a spice. Turmeric has been used since ancient times as a natural remedy for cleansing the body and fighting inflammation, and even now it is actively included in the diet when the goal is to cleanse the body. However, the concentration of curcumin in this spice reaches only 5%: to get the recommended daily portion of the active substance, you would have to eat at least 30 g of turmeric. Therefore, it is more profitable and logical to buy special preparations that contain a ready-made concentrated extract. Yes, one capsule of Stark Curcumin Extract contains 500 mg of curcumin.

What are the effects of curcumin?

• It is most valued for its anti-inflammatory effect : it inhibits the activity of molecules involved in inflammatory processes (phospholipase, elastase, thromboxane, etc.). Turmeric extract helps the body to cope with any types of inflammation faster, for example, it is used for inflammation of the joints, osteoarthritis and various infectious diseases of the respiratory tract; to accelerate recovery after injury. Reduces damage and inflammation of muscle tissue;
• The antimicrobial property has given curcumin the name of "natural antibiotic", while there are no side effects and burden on the liver, unlike synthetic antibiotics. Moreover, clinical studies have shown no toxicity of curcumin even at extremely high doses (8000 mg per day);
• The known ability of curcumin to prevent oxidative stress is an antioxidant effect . In various ways, it neutralizes the negative effects of free radicals, thereby maintaining the normal state of cells and accelerating regenerative processes at the cellular level.

For athletes, curcumin is of particular value. First, its use allows you to increase the level of testosterone and, instead, reduce the amount of estrogen. This is the key moment for building muscle mass and its dominance over the fat layer. Turmeric extract suppresses the decrease in the amount of protein under conditions of forced starvation, that is, it allows you to protect muscles from catabolic processes. For a month of taking the supplement in combination with targeted training, you can increase strength indicators by 5%.

Given the ability of curcumin to alleviate the manifestations of metabolic syndrome (which includes an increase in visceral fat and disruption of metabolic processes), it is advisable to supplement the diet and physical activity aimed at weight loss and fat burning.

How best to take curcumin
