      <description><![CDATA[Turmeric contains anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce swelling, stiffness, redness, and heat associated with arthritis symptoms. My mother suffers from this, so it is useful to note a common spice can help her out so greatly. Curcumin is the most "active" compound found in turmeric. And it's the reason for turmeric's beautiful golden colour. It stains yellow everywhere, but that yellow is also where the goodness is, kind of like the sunshine. I recommend Turmeric or better yet Curcumin for any health related issues.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[I've known this for a long time but it is an easy mistake to make and I've definitely seen people confusing or mixing up the two. I've heard the mnemonic, "Tumeric is the Total, curcumin is the component" before. Thank you for putting this article out there in order to clear up the confusion and to, as always, educate in an approachable and engaging manner. Also, I like how at the end you clear up a final possible misconception-that curcumin is not cumin!!! I bet that is a common source of confusion also]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Hello O,
It's fascinating how curcumin, the active compound in turmeric, has been found to have numerous health benefits. And you're right, taking it with black pepper can enhance its absorption in the body. Turmeric not only adds a delicious flavour to dishes but also offers potential health perks. So it's a win-win situation! Remembering to pair it with black pepper can maximize its benefits. Happy cooking and be sure to check out this healthy recipe which incorporates turmeric: <a href="https://www.nationalnutrition.ca/articles/healthy-recipes/slow-cooker-rutabaga-chicken-stew/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">https://www.nationalnutrition.ca/articles/healthy-recipes/slow-cooker-rutabaga-chicken-stew/</a>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[It is so cool to know that curcumin can be found in turmeric and is the one that is isolated to have those healthy health benefits. Trumeric is not well absorbed which makes sense why it is always recommended to take with black pepper. I never thought about taking curcumin alone as an isolated form from turmeric but it makes sense! Turmeric is a great spice to add to cooking and I love the flavour. I will be sure to remember black pepper!]]></description>
