Turmeric has been used in
Ayurvedic medicine for the treatment of inflammation and
has very
effective antioxidants as well.
Doctors are now using turmeric for inflammatory conditions: arthritis,
osteoarthritis, acute infections. Also
for health conditions caused by free radical damage: cardiovascular
problems, arterial damage, heart
disease, and others. Turmeric is also used in the
treatment of certain cancers.
Many studies have shown the antioxidant,
anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancer powers of curcuminoids
in the herb turmeric. In a double-blind test, people with rheumatoid
arthritis who received turmeric benefited equally to people who took the drug phyenylbutazone
(popular prescription drug which can have side effects).
In another study, 10 people received 500 mg of turmeric
every day for a week had a measurable lowering of free
radicals in their body. Still other medical studies have
shown that curcumin with its curcuminoids can block the
growth of cancer cells. Turmeric has been used
in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries.
