Curcumin could save your life, may prevent, and cure cancer. It may destroy blood cancer multiple myeloma, as well as other cancers. It is an antioxidant and has anti-inflammatory properties that heal wounds, fight Alzheimer's and MS, with no known side effects--even in large amounts.
Curcumin inhibits the interleukin-8 (IL-8) protein (which attracts white blood cells to a site, leading to inflammation). It also reduces activity of the nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-kappaB) molecule that helps regulate the gene producing IL-8. Tumor cells secrete IL-8, causing inflammation, stimulating tumor cells, and suppressing the immune system. Curcumin suppresses IL-8, so in fact it prevents tumor growth.
Curcumin helps to protect the skin, good news to cancer patients with burns from radiation therapy. Because curcumin prevents tumor growth, it will suppress new cell development. This increases the effectiveness of radiation therapy.
Curcumin gives food a yellow color when added. It is found in as common a condiment as yellow mustard.
We need to learn more about curcumin, including proper dosage. Natural, no drug company would pay for medical studies (with no money in it for them).
