RE: This Common Household Herb is More Effective at Fighting Headaches than Ibuprofen

Yes, turmeric really is a wonder remedy indeed, and as @kennyskitchen so rightly advised, you really want to be adding black pepper to turmeric to increase its bio-availabilty.

The reason being, is because Curcumin; the active ingredient of Turmeric, gets metabolised before the human body can properly absorb it. Piperine helps Curcumin become more bioavailable.

I often make a turmeric based, health enriching elixir, whose recipe, I posted on steemit last week. It's delicious, easy to make and full of goodness. You can check it out here:
