How Curcumin can help you in weight loss

People gain weight by consuming more energy than they burn, so consuming fewer calories, or energy, can help. However other factors play a role, genetic factors, metabolism, hormones, the type of food you eat, your body type and lifestyle. 

Obesity is known to create ongoing low-grade inflammation in the body which leads to further chronic diseases inclusive of diabetes and heart-diseases. Turmeric’s anti-inflammatory and antioxidant mechanisms can alter signals at the cellular level and help avoid untimely health issues. Not only does it prevent insulin resistance mechanisms and other metabolic conditions related to obesity such as high cholesterol levels, but it also protects from untimely heart diseases and stroke. 

The main life-saving ingredient in turmeric is about 3-5 % of Curcumin; a photo-derivative, which contains healing properties. However, because of the low percentage levels in standardized turmeric powder, it is difficult to reap all benefits by just taking turmeric in small doses and thus supplements could be required. Benefits of Curcumin in weight management are detailed below:
Curcumin reduces inflammation – Obesity is known to be a pro-inflammatory condition and studies have been done that concluded that Curcumin directly interacts with cells to reduce inflammation and during this process, it helps in a reversal of insulin resistance, hyperglycemia and other symptoms that often accompany obesity.
Curcumin helps with liver detoxification – Liver plays an important role in fat metabolism which in turn is very important in weight loss. Turmeric helps detoxify the liver and reverse cellular damage or scarring of the liver. Better functioning of the liver helps get rid of excessive fats.


Curcumin promotes thermogenesis – In the process referred to as thermogenesis, fat gets burnt by the central nervous system in order to maintain body temperature. Curcumin helps increase thermogenesis rate which then leads to greater amount of fat getting burnt and thus encouraging weight loss.

Curcumin inhibits the growth of fat tissue – In our bodies, adipose tissues are responsible for the storage of fat cells and these adipose tissues get nutrients and oxygen through a process called angiogenesis. Curcumin has anti-angiogenic properties and thus helps inhibit fat tissue growth, and thus promoting weight loss.

Dr.  explains, “With the fast-paced lifestyle we lead, a lot of times it becomes difficult for us to work-out and manage our weight; over a period we end up putting on a lot of weight and fighting it becomes difficult which then leads to other health concerns.  
Curcumin is a natural healthy source and consuming it regularly helps us manage our health and controls our weight. However, it is not possible for us to intake the required amount in our day to day diet. So one can consider supplements.”
