( Natural News ) Turmeric has been used to add flavor and color to food for thousands of years, but over the last decade, it has gained worldwide popularity not for its use in the kitchen but because of its many health benefits.

Recent studies found that curcumin, the main active ingredient in turmeric, can prevent the harmful effects of chronic stress . With everything that’s going on in the world, it’s normal to feel stressed. However, constantly being in this state can have repercussions on a person’s health. This condition, known as chronic stress, is characterized by increased production of the stress hormone cortisol and a consequent increase in the size and weight of the adrenal glands that produce it.

Collectively, these effects increase a person’s risk for health problems especially those that are related to brain functions, such as anxiety, depression, poor memory and concentration, and sleep problems. Fortunately, there are natural remedies like turmeric that can reverse these changes.
