Pharmacology
Turmeric has anti-hepatotoxic, antihyperlipidemic and anti-inflammatory effects. It is also antioxidant (it inhibits the formation of lipid peroxide in the liver) and anti-tumoral. It also inhibits prostaglandin.
Piperine has been shown to raise serum levels and lengthen the serum half-life of some nutritional substances. It may act as a thermo-nutrient, increasing the absorption of certain nutritional substances from the gastrointestinal tract through a local thermogenic action. Its anti-inflammatory activity may be explained, in part, by a possible antioxidant activity. A few studies suggest that Piperine may inhibit lipid peroxidation. However, it appears to have this activity when given together with other spice bioactives such as capsaicin and curcumin (Turmeric).
Pregnancy & Breastfeeding
Turmeric with piperine should not be used during pregnancy.
