These energy bars contains turmeric root, a powerful herb known and used around the world for its medicinal properties, with some of the earliest therapeutic uses being recorded in 1748. Turmeric is a major source of the polyphenol curcumin which has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimutagenic, antimicrobial, and anticancer properties. It has also been shown to play a role in the management of exercise-induced inflammation and muscle soreness and, therefore, enhancing the recovery process and increasing performance. We add a touch of black pepper to this bar not only to balance the flavor, but also because black pepper has been shown to increase the body’s absorption of curcumin by 2000%.
