3 Surprising benefits of curry<\/p>\n

As our country continues to record lower-than-ever temperatures, many of us are turning to comfort food to warm us up. And, according to Catherine Clark, Founder and Owner of the Harvest Table, there is no greater comfort food than a good ol\u2019 fashioned curry. \u201cOne of the most popular dishes among all South Africans, curry is a delightful mix of flavours and aromatics. It is the very definition of \u2018South African soul food\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n

Catherine adds that in addition to curry warming you from the inside out, it also offers a number of surprising health benefits:<\/p>\n

1. Relieves inflammation: A good curry is always packed with spices like turmeric, coriander, and chilli pepper \u2013 spices that are all known for their anti-inflammatory properties. The hero spice, turmeric, contains a pigment called curcumin, which is said to relieve symptoms of inflammatory diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and inflammatory bowel disease.<\/p>\n

2. Prevent illness and aging: Curry powder contains an abundance of antioxidants, such as curcumin, quercetin, pinene, lutein, zeaxanthin, and cuminal. Antioxidants are compounds that help prevent or repair cell damage caused by reactive molecules known as free radicals (unstable atoms that damage cells, causing illness and aging eating). Eating antioxidant-rich foods (like a curry) will help decrease the effects of oxidative stress and reduce your disease risk.<\/p>\n

3. Helps prevent cancer: Many of the spices in curry powder have been said to have anticancer properties. In particular, the curcumin in the hero curry spice turmeric, has shown considerable anticancer effects against several different types of cancer, including prostate cancer, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, and head and neck cancer.<\/p>\n

The one consistent ingredient throughout the above-mentioned health benefits is the active compound curcumin, found in the bright yellow-orange spice, turmeric. Catherine says that this is one of the reasons that the Harvest Table launched the Harvest Table Collagen Turmeric Latte. \u201cWe took the golden, spiced powder and combined it with the strength of collagen, and the result is a powerful health supplement.\u201d The best part? It can be consumed as a drink or added to, you guessed it, a warm winter curry!<\/p>\n
