- A team of researchers at the University of California, Davis in Sacramento, California compared the effects of turmeric supplements with turmeric-containing herbal supplements on skin barrier function and sebum production in 30 healthy individuals.
- The participants received a placebo, turmeric, or turmeric-containing herbal supplements.
- They orally took their assigned supplements twice a day for four weeks.
- To determine the treatments' effects, the research team measured the facial sebum and transepidermal water loss (TEWL) in the participants at the beginning and the end of the study.
- Only 28 participants completed the study.
- Like the other treatments, turmeric-containing herbal supplements did not affect facial sebum, but it is the only treatment that substantially decreased TEWL.
- All intervention supplements did not cause any side effects.
