Inflammation can cause various health issues, from chronic pain to digestive problems. At Ethical Nutrition, we offer a range of high-quality supplements designed to help manage and reduce inflammation naturally.
Turmeric: Used for centuries in Indian (Ayurvedic) and Chinese medicine, turmeric is renowned for its anti-inflammatory properties. It has been used to treat digestive and liver problems, skin conditions, and wounds. Several studies suggest that turmeric may be as effective as ibuprofen for reducing inflammation, swelling, and pain. However, more research is needed to confirm these effects.
Omega-3 Fatty Acids: These essential fats can reduce the production of molecules and substances linked to inflammation, such as inflammatory eicosanoids and cytokines. Omega-3s are particularly effective in reducing chronic inflammation, supporting overall health and well-being.

Research supports the effectiveness of these supplements in managing inflammation. Studies show that turmeric has potent anti-inflammatory properties and may be as effective as ibuprofen [1]. Omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to reduce the production of inflammatory molecules and support overall health [2].
FAQs
Curcumin, the active compound in turmeric, is widely considered one of the strongest natural anti-inflammatory supplements. Curcumin has potent anti-inflammatory properties, comparable to some anti-inflammatory medications, but with fewer side effects. It works by inhibiting several molecules known to play significant roles in inflammation, including nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2).

Studies indicate that curcumin is highly effective in reducing inflammation and may be comparable to anti-inflammatory medications [1].
While curcumin is highly effective, another powerful supplement for reducing inflammation is Omega-3 fatty acids. Found in fish oil, omega-3s (particularly EPA and DHA) are well-documented for their anti-inflammatory effects. They work by reducing the production of inflammatory cytokines and eicosanoids, which are substances in the body that promote inflammation.

Research supports the effectiveness of omega-3 fatty acids in reducing inflammation through the reduction of inflammatory cytokines and eicosanoids [1].
For some individuals, Boswellia serrata (Indian frankincense) may be more effective than turmeric. Boswellic acids, the active components in Boswellia, have strong anti-inflammatory properties. Studies suggest that Boswellia can help reduce pain and improve function in individuals with chronic inflammatory conditions such as osteoarthritis and inflammatory bowel disease, sometimes providing more rapid relief compared to curcumin.

Studies show that Boswellia serrata can be highly effective in reducing inflammation and improving function in chronic inflammatory conditions [1].
Curcumin and Boswellia serrata are known to work similarly to ibuprofen by targeting inflammatory pathways. Curcumin inhibits COX-2 enzymes and NF-kB, while Boswellia inhibits 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) and reduces leukotriene synthesis, both of which are involved in the inflammatory response. These supplements offer anti-inflammatory benefits akin to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) but typically with fewer gastrointestinal side effects.

Research indicates that both curcumin and Boswellia serrata can effectively reduce inflammation through mechanisms similar to those of NSAIDs [1] [2].
For maximum anti-inflammatory effect, turmeric (curcumin) should be taken with the following considerations:
With Black Pepper: Combining turmeric with black pepper (which contains piperine) significantly enhances curcumin absorption by up to 2000%.
With Healthy Fats: Curcumin is fat-soluble, so taking it with a fat source like olive oil, coconut oil, or avocado can improve absorption.
Supplement Form: High-quality curcumin supplements often come in formulations that enhance bioavailability, such as phytosome technology (Meriva), curcumin nanoparticles, or liposomal curcumin.
Dosage: Effective doses typically range from 500 to 2,000 mg of curcumin per day, divided into two or three doses. It’s important to follow the dosage instructions on the supplement label and consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
