1. Lipitor (atorvastatin)
Lipitor is a popular and effective drug for high cholesterol. However, a survey recently published in R&D Journal for Drugs revealed that turmeric was more effective than Lipitor when it comes to endothelial dysfunction. It is this dysfunction that affects inflammation and oxidative stress in the blood vessels.
2. Aspirin
Aspirin is used primarily to thin the blood and prevent clotting, which makes it a good resource for those prone to or suffering from heart attacks. Studies have shown that turmeric can effectively replace aspirin for individuals that are at risk for vascular thrombosis as well as arthritis.
3. Prozac, Fluoxetine, and Imipramine
These drugs are all prescribed to treat depression. However, turmeric was shown to be a more effective anti-depressant than these drugs, in a study published by Acta Pharmaceutica Poloniae Journal.
4. Corticosteroids
Phytotherapy Research Journal published a study that revealed turmeric’s incredible effect on inflammatory eye disease. In fact, curcumin, which is found in turmeric, was found to be more effective than steroids in treating this inflammation. Turmeric is also free of the many negative side effects that can accompany steroids, such as mood swings, hair growth, and more.
5. Oxaliplatin
This drug is often used in chemotherapy to reduce the spread of cancer. A study published in The International Cancer Journal showed that turmeric may be as effective as oxaliplatin in preventing proliferation.
6. Anti-inflammatory Drugs
This list includes ibuprofen, sulindac, phenylbutazone, Naproxen, Indomethacin, dexamethasone, and Tamoxifen. An Oncogene Journal study revealed that turmeric is more effective in reducing inflammation than all of these drugs mentioned, as well as others.
7. Metformin
If you suffer from diabetes, you likely know exactly what Metformin is, which is a common drug prescribed to increase glucose uptake and decrease glucose formation in hematoma cells. A study found in The Biochemistry and Biophysical Journal showed that turmeric can effectively combat diabetes, and may be up to 1,000 more effective than Metformin.
Conclusion
Clearly, turmeric has some pretty impressive medicinal benefits. Even better, turmeric does not pose many of the risks that are associated with pharmaceutical drugs, such as stomach and liver damage, drowsiness, mood swings, and more. Whether you’re suffering from a run-of-the-mill headache or one of the more serious symptoms discussed above, try reaching for some turmeric for a quick and effective remedy, and leave that pill bottle in the medicine cabinet.
