Turmeric

Turmeric, also known as the "golden spice", has a variety of healthy components that can improve your overall health. Turmeric is well-known for its antioxidant properties and the ability to boost the synthesis of nitric oxide to enhance blood flow and circulation.

In fact, turmeric has been used in Ayurvedic and traditional Chinese medicine to open blood vessels and improve blood circulation for centuries. According to research, the turmeric compound curcumin helps in nitric oxide production, oxidative stress reduction, and inflammation decrease. One research including 39 people found that ingesting 2,000 mg of curcumin daily for 12 weeks increased blood flow in the upper and forearm by 36% and 37%, respectively. To boost the body's ability to absorb oxygen, turmeric may be added to many foods, including warm milk.
