Backed by Dr. Kendra Pope
BENEFITS
As the most well-researched anti-cancer herb, turmeric has shown the ability to disrupt the development, growth, and spread of cancer in cells. Turmeric also has anti-inflammatory effects so it is often utilized to help reduce pain in conditions caused by inflammation.
