Dr. Kurt Bravata reviews Zyflamend by New Chapter — a whole-herb anti-inflammatory formula with turmeric, rosemary, and holy basil. Why he recommends it and how to use it.
Kurt Bravata, M.D. · Educational, not a substitute for your physician.
Inflammation is not the enemy. Acute inflammation is your body's first line of defense — it is how you heal a cut, fight an infection, and recover from a hard workout. The problem is chronic, low-grade inflammation — the kind that smolders silently for years, quietly driving heart disease, diabetes, cancer, arthritis, and cognitive decline.
Most people reach for NSAIDs. The problem is that NSAIDs come with a cost: gastrointestinal damage, kidney stress, and cardiovascular risk with long-term use. There is a better option.
Zyflamend by New Chapter is a whole-herb anti-inflammatory formula containing ten botanicals, each chosen for its ability to support a healthy inflammatory response:
New Chapter uses a CO2 supercritical extraction process — prion-free, hexane-free, no synthetic additives or chemical solvents. Non-GMO, vegetarian, gluten-free.
Research has shown Zyflamend inhibits both COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes — the same enzymes targeted by NSAIDs like ibuprofen and naproxen — without the gastrointestinal side effects. Early data from a human clinical trial at Columbia University suggests daily supplementation promotes healthy levels of C-reactive protein.
The product holds a 4.4-star rating from over 1,300 Amazon reviews, with 72% five-star ratings. Customers report significant improvements in joint pain, morning stiffness, and recovery from exercise.
Dose: 1–2 softgels twice daily, taken in the middle of a larger meal with 8 oz of water. Taking on an empty stomach can cause heartburn in some people.
Caution: Consult your physician if you take blood thinners, blood sugar medications, or are pregnant or nursing.
