Curcumin, found in turmeric, is a powerful DNA methylation adaptogen and a Younger You superstar!
It has an impressive ability to modulate genetic expression by changing levels of DNA methylation. In cell studies, curcumin looks to be able to both add and reverse excess or erroneous methylation marks on your DNA, like the clean-up crew for life’s inevitable biochemical messes.
Known as the “king of spices,” turmeric has many other potent effects on your biochemistry and your health, including preventing cancer as well as neurological and inflammatory diseases.
If opting for dried turmeric choose organic as some conventional products may be contaminated with heavy metals such as lead.
Add to eggs, salad dressings, stir fries, soups, and stews (I love our Creamy Coconut Curry recipe) or make a warming golden milk.
