How Turmeric Can Treat Flare-Ups and Reduce Inflammation in Mountain Ice Eczema Cream
Turmeric, long renowned for its anti-inflammatory properties, is one of the potent compounds that makes Mountain Ice Eczema Cream so effective. Read on to learn how turmeric's active ingredient curcumin can hydrate, soothe, and restore your skin!
Reduced Inflammation
The active ingredient in turmeric is curcumin, a chemical compound responsible for the distinctive color of the plant and also for its anti-inflammatory properties. By blocking cytokines (proteins that signal cell response) and enzymes (proteins that serve as catalysts for chemical reactions) involved in inflammation response, curcumin can attack inflammation at its source. These chemicals include 5-LOX and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), the latter of which is targeted by many drugs that range from non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to selective inhibitors that target COX-2 specifically. It's one of the most common causes of inflammation and studies suggest that curcumin is effective in suppressing it.
Reduced Oxidative Stress
Oxidative stress, the imbalance of free radicals and antioxidants, can cause cellular damage resulting in inflammation, sometimes even as a chronic condition. Studies suggest that this damage may have a significant role in eczema flare-ups. Antioxidants like curcumin to balance out free radicals and reduce this damage.
Improved Circulation
As an antioxidant, curcumin's heart healthy properties can help boost your blood circulation, which will allow your body to deliver more oxygen and nutrients through the bloodstream. These nutrients are vital to repairing cell damage and preventing further harm, which helps to reduce inflammation. This has important implications for all eczema patients, but especially those with stasis dermatitis (also known as varicose eczema), skin inflammation in the lower legs caused by fluid buildup from poor circulation.
