Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 2

Yellow Ginger (Curcuma longa), commonly known as turmeric, has a long history of traditional use in Ayurvedic and other traditional medicine systems to support various aspects of health, including the muscles and joints. Traditionally, turmeric has been used to reduce inflammation, alleviate muscle soreness, and support recovery from muscular exertion. The active compound in turmeric, curcumin, is believed to be responsible for many of these purported effects due to its anti-inflammatory properties. While modern research has primarily focused on turmeric’s effects on joint health and systemic inflammation, there is limited direct scientific evidence specifically linking yellow ginger to improvements in muscle function, muscle growth, or muscle recovery. Some small studies have suggested that curcumin supplementation may help reduce markers of muscle damage and soreness after intense exercise, but these findings are preliminary and not yet robust. Most claims supporting the use of yellow ginger for the muscles body system are rooted in traditional use rather than rigorous scientific validation. Therefore, while there is a traditional basis for its use, the strength of evidence for muscle support is relatively low.
