Drink 1 Cup a Day to Erase Chronic Inflammation Fast | Dr. Mandell

Drinking this one cup every morning can support your body’s natural ability to calm chronic inflammation. Turmeric contains curcumin, a compound shown to modulate inflammatory pathways by reducing NF-κB activation and cytokine activity. Studies show curcumin can significantly reduce inflammation markers and support joint, digestive, and immune health. Extra virgin olive oil provides oleocanthal, a natural anti-inflammatory compound that works similarly to ibuprofen by inhibiting COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes. Black pepper contains piperine, which increases the absorption of curcumin by up to 2,000 percent, making this combination far more effective. Adding warm water improves solubility and absorption, while a splash of orange juice adds vitamin C to support immune function.
