by Ed Winslow | Dec 23, 2014 | Curcumin Benefits

Medical studies and treatment of irritable bowel syndrome continue to show promise. If clinical trials and research findings are correct, there’s definite help out there for IBS problems. But rather than looking in your medicine chest for the cure, you’ll be surprised to learn that you just might find it in your pantry instead!

Turmeric, the exotic herb used to flavor curries and spice up other Middle Eastern fare, appears to be a key ingredient that researchers suggest will soothe IBS symptoms.

Since many irritable bowel symptoms go undetected by doctors, sufferers need quick relief from the abdominal pain, diarrhea, flatulence and bloat associated with this functional disorder. But getting such a remedy will definitely require a bit more than a visit to your local grocer.

Researching Turmeric Curcumin: IBS Symptom Remedy?

The compound responsible for the turmeric plant’s potential remedy is an extract from the plant known as Curcumin.

Doctors believe that IBS symptoms occur because of inflammation in the intestinal mucosa. An eight-week pilot study of IBS patients demonstrated that Curcumin or turmeric extract offers an anti-inflammatory effect in the gut.¹

At the same time, it increases bile flow from the liver and prevents the fermenting of undigested fats in the intestine, all processes which many doctors believe lead to the various symptoms common to the illness. In fact, patients participating in the study experienced up to a 50 percent decrease in abdominal discomfort and IBS symptoms. Their results occurred from taking 72 to 144 mg per day over an 8-week period.
