ukon
Ukon is Enagic’s very own 100% organic, high quality wild turmeric. Turmeric has been recognized for centuries as a natural healer. It’s been known since the era of the Ryuku Dynasty as a strong antioxidant, and India’s ancient medicine, Ayurveda, has used turmeric as an analgesic, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-allergen, and antioxidant for well over 6,000 years.
The active and most powerful component of turmeric is called curcumin, and Ukon is packed full of it. Curcumin is a natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, improves heart and brain health, increases antioxidant levels in the body, fights depression, helps prevent arthritis and Alzheimer’s, and helps prevent and treat cancer.
Over 2,000 published studies have shown that curcumin combats cancers of the breast, prostate, liver, colon, lung, pancreas and more. Many of these studies have shown curcumin actually stops cancer cells from dividing. Curcumin has also been shown to trigger apoptosis, or programmed cell death, which is the body’s natural and necessary way of ridding itself from damaged cells.

Why We Choose Enagic’s Ukon
Ukon is only grown on dedicated farms in Yanbaru on the island of Okinawa, Japan, and is 100% organic and free of harmful chemicals used in lower-quality, conventional turmeric farming.
Enagic grows both Spring and Autumn Ukon. It is all cleansed and sanitized by Strong Kangen Water® (11.5 pH) and Strong Acidic Water (2.5 pH) at the Enagic Ukon Factory using multiple Super SD 501 Kangen machines. This is the first supplement ever produced by combining curcumin, Kangen Water® and 100% additive-free Spring Ukon essential oil and is made complete with the perfect combination of healthy carrier oils for the maximum curcumin absorption.
