Why You Should Add Turmeric to Your Beauty & Wellness Routine
Alongside hemp cannabis, the co-starring ingredient in our CBD + Turmeric Tinctures is a popular, bright-orange spice that's been used as a medicinal herb for thousands of years. So, how exactly does turmeric promote beauty from within?
Turmeric is a high level antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial raw material. These properties support positive mental, physical and overall better skin health. Studies have shown that daily intake of turmeric can aid in the natural glow of the skin. The plant can also play a big part in boosting our serotonin and dopamine levels which enhances and improves our mood.
But we don't just add the turmeric spice to create our tinctures...
We use a CO2 extraction process for the turmeric because it allows for greater selectivity, or the greater concentration of turmerone and ar-tumerone, the main actives in turmeric that have potent, skin- and mood-changing properties. This is why CBD + Turmeric Tinctures aren't bright orange — we were able to isolate just the actives we wanted.
When extracted, only the highest characteristic properties are left, and it's the closest representation we can get to the natural plant. Unlike other environmentally harmful extraction processes, this is eco-friendly and sustainable. It doesn't create waste, and there are no emissions involved in this technology.
