A recent study published in the journal Nutrition Reviews revealed that regular consumption of spices helps support gut and nervous system health while reducing the risk of chronic diseases.اضافة اعلان
During their research, scientists analyzed data from 8 human clinical trials, 12 laboratory experiments, and numerous studies evaluating the health impacts of spices. The research covered widely used spices, including cinnamon, turmeric, chili pepper, and various spice blends.
The results demonstrated that the polyphenols found in spices are hardly absorbed in the upper gastrointestinal tract; instead, they serve as nourishment for beneficial gut bacteria, promoting their growth. These compounds can reduce systemic inflammation, protect the nervous system, support cardiovascular health, and mitigate the effects of oxidative stress, thereby lowering the risk of chronic illnesses and enhancing overall gut and digestive health.
Researchers noted that the health benefits of spices depend heavily on cooking methods and individual metabolic traits.
Numerous studies highlight that spices such as cinnamon, black pepper, and turmeric are rich in antioxidants that bolster the immune system and fight inflammation.
Furthermore, a study published in Food & Function indicated that saffron helps alleviate inflammation and improve mood in individuals with Parkinson’s disease. Similarly, research published in Frontiers in Nutrition showed that saffron extract aids in improving mood and sleep quality among women aged 50 to 70.
