Did you know bioperin, derived from black pepper, is thought to increase the bioavailability of curcumin, the active anti-inflammatory compound found in turmeric 🖤💛?
***
Turmeric is used in curries 🍛 , as well as in the trendy “turmeric latte”. This spiced drink has been widely claimed to have anti-inflammatory effects on the body.
However, the one to few teaspoons (at most) of turmeric powder used in such latte is barely reach the claimed effects of curcumin, as the powder only contains 3.4% (at best) of curcumin.
Research has demonstrated therapeutic effects using a curcumin dose between 0.5 to 8g per day 🧪, which translates to ingesting of 5 to 85 teaspoons of turmeric powder a day 🤷🏻♀️.
𝗕𝗼𝘁𝘁𝗼𝗺 𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲: Enjoy this spiced latte if you like the taste 💞 but it is unlikely to reach the claimed therapeutic effects of curcumin; curcumin is also not well absorbed in the absence of absorption enhancers. Instead, incorporate as many colored fruits and vegetables into your diet 🌈 and consume omega-3 rich oily fish like salmon or mackerel 🐟 twice a week for “anti-inflammatory” effects!

今時今日,走一趟藥房,不難發現市面上充滿著林林總總的保健產品,當中說明的功效從補腦、補骨、補關節、補眼、補肝、補心臟⋯⋯幾乎所有說得出來的人體器官,都總有一款相對應的產品。
那麼,這些產品究竟有沒有醫學實證?哪些有,哪些沒有?
今日想跟大家分析一項近來很受歡迎的產品——薑黃 /薑黃素(Turmeric / Curcumin)。
相信在藥房或超市,大家很常見到薑黃素以「調節免疫系統 / 減低身體炎症」作為賣點。那麼,這些宣稱的功效真的有醫學實證支持嗎?
讓我們一起來Literature Review一下:
其實薑黃 /薑黃素在過去的十幾年一直是膳食補充劑類的研究對象。在早期的動物研究中,研究人員發現薑黃 / 薑黃素在特定的劑量下對實驗老鼠有減低炎症的作用(prevention of inflammatory process via modulation or inhibition of cyclooxygenase, TNF alpha, Interleukin etc) [1][2]
然而,在動物實驗中具有消炎效果,是否就代表在人類身上亦會有臨床治療炎症的效果呢?事實上,很多動物實驗跟臨床研究都可能會有落差,所以如果要判斷,我們必須去細心調查臨床研究的結果。
目前較多的臨床研究是薑黃 / 薑黃素的消炎及免疫調節效用。
在炎症性腸炎方面(Inflammatory bowel disease),例如克隆氏症(Crohn’s Disease)和潰瘍性結腸炎(Ulcerative Colitis)有少量臨床研究發現薑黃素可減低系統性發炎的程度、徵狀及復發機會。[3]
在其他一些系統性發炎或自體免疫系統疾病方法,例如紅斑狼瘡性腎炎(Lupus Nephritis)、虹膜炎(Uveitis),小量的臨床研究同樣發現薑黃素可減低發炎的程度、徵狀、復發機會及併發症。[3]
另外,最近有研究發現,當薑黃素混合胡椒鹼(piperine)時,可令薑黃素的生物利用度(bioavailability)增加至20倍,有助解決薑黄素擁有相對較低生物利用度的問題。[4]
不過我們必須明白,雖然這些早期的臨床研究結果非常具鼓舞性,但我們需要更多的大型國際臨床研究,以進一步調查薑黃 /薑黃素在不同的症病下的實際原理,為未來臨床治病應用立下基礎。
所以,如果大家想選購保健產品,記得像文科生一樣,先去做Literature Review,並選擇合適自己的產品才去試用;如試用前或試用後有不適或憂慮;或如閣下正長期服用抗凝血藥物或其他處方藥物,請先諮詢主診醫生/家庭醫生或藥劑師意見。
最後,緊記無論是哪一款的膳食補充品,都不能代替健康的生活方式,大家還是要多做運動、均衡飲食和作息定時,才能活出健康的人生啊。
祝願大家2020可以過身體健康的一年。

You are solid gold ♡. Turmeric, ginger, garlic and brown rice 🍚✨. So good with curries🍛. The compound that makes turmeric bright yellow is curcumin. It has anti-inflammatory properties and is an antioxidant. Pair it up with black pepper to increase its bioavailability🔝! Happy Saturday 🌈!
