E xhausting, unusual exercise can damage muscle, and lead to delayed soreness, weakness, and inflammation. Many earlier studies have found curcumin reduced inflammation. In this review of five studies covering 98 sedentary but healthy young men and women, participants took a placebo or 180 to 400 mg of curcumin per day, for two days to four weeks. The acute exercises included free weights, leg presses, maximum jump height, and a cycling challenge. Compared to placebo, curcumin reduced levels of inflammatory factors creatine kinase, ammonia, interleukin-6 and -8, and tumor necrosis factor alpha; and increased maximum contraction power and range of motion. The curcumin group also reported less fatigue compared to placebo.

Product Reference Guide: Willner Chemists Phyto-Tech™ Herbal Supplement DHA Promotes Full-Term Births Curcumin Reduced Muscle Damage and Inflammation W omen who supplemented with 1,000 mg of DHA per day beginning at 12 to 20 weeks pregnant, were much less likely to have a pre-term birth than women taking a lower dose. This is the first study to compare higher-dose DHA with the 200 mg in most prenatal supplements. In this study, doctors compared early pre-term births— those before 34 weeks—between women on the two different doses of DHA. Overall, 1.7 percent of women taking 1,000 mg of DHA had a pre-term birth compared to 2.4 percent of women taking 200 mg. Benefits were greatest among women who began the study with low levels of DHA, with pre-term births of 2 percent for those taking 1,000 mg compared to 4.1 percent for women on the 200 mg dose. Doctors said this “dramatic decrease” in early pre-term births is “a game changer for obstetricians and their patients.” Reference: Lancet-E ClinicalMedicine; 2021, 100905, Published Online Willner Chemists Product Recommendations by Arnie Gitomer DHA 500 mg.
