What are the effects of curcumin?

1. Prevent cancer

Anti-cancer is one of the main pharmacological activities of curcumin, which can cause several changes at the molecular level of the body, all of which help prevent cancer.

2. The key anticancer properties of curcumin are due to its anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties.

Cancer occurs when our cells are transformed due to mutations and defects caused by many different root causes, including lifestyle, diet, stress, environment, and underlying genetic factors. Our bodies are designed with protection and defense mechanisms at the systemic and cellular levels. Our immune system is designed to recognize any foreign body (bacterial or viral infection) or anything abnormal in the body and has processes and biological workflows to remove abnormalities. Even at the cellular level, as cells divide for growth, renewal, wound healing, and other everyday bodily functions, we check at every level, starting with checking the accuracy of the main information in our genome, the DNA. There is an entire DNA damage sensing and repair mechanism that is constantly working in this process.

Inflammation is the body’s inherent process of recognizing defects or abnormalities and recruiting the body’s immune defenses to address and clear the problem.

3. Curcumin has anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties

The active compounds in turmeric, such as curcumin, have anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, antiviral, and lipid-lowering effects. Therefore, turmeric is used as an herb for rheumatoid arthritis, conjunctivitis, skin cancer, wound healing, urinary tract infections, and liver diseases.

The anti-inflammatory properties of turmeric may be able to relieve pain in inflammatory conditions such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

4. Curcumin helps to improve digestive diseases

It is also used in digestive disorders, reducing symptoms such as flatulence, jaundice, colic, abdominal pain, and bloating, and in indigestion conditions, including loss of appetite, post-prandial satiety, and liver and gallbladder disorders. It is also anti-inflammatory, gallbladder, antibacterial, and helps with exhaust.

5. Anti-oxidation and anti-aging

Curcumin doesn’t “stop” the body from aging, but it can slow down its negative effects. The antioxidant properties of turmeric are an important means to reduce molecular damage and oxidation accumulation.

Curcumin is a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory that may slow aging. It increases the level of antioxidant enzymes in the body and scavenges free radicals that cause oxidative stress. It increases levels of the brain hormone brain-derived neurotrophic factor, which increases the growth of new neurons and fights various degenerative processes in the brain.

6. Reduce heart attacks

It acts on several factors known to be involved in heart disease, IMPROVES ENDOTHELIAL FUNCTION, is a potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant, and may help reverse many steps in THE heart disease process.

7. Improve Alzheimer’s disease

Curcumin has been shown to improve various pathological processes that lead to Alzheimer’s, such as helping to clear lesions called amyloid plaques.

8. Prevent depression

4. As a food colorant, it can be used in candy, jelly, ice cream, and carbonated drinks, and the maximum amount used is 0.01g/kg.
5. Pure natural food colorant, with strong coloring power, good heat resistance, and good light resistance.
6. Manufacture turmeric test paper, pH8 ~ 9; Acid and base indicator for determination of boron, pH7.8(yellow) ~ 9.2(red-brown). Chromogenic reaction to measure beryllium, zirconium and magnesium, borate, and reagents. A natural phenolic substance that is antitumor and anti-inflammatory and has antioxidant properties that induce apoptosis in cancer cells.
