Tumeric is a spice that comes from the root Curcuma longa, a member of the ginger family, Zingaberaceae.
Turmeric has been used for its medicinal properties for various indications and through different routes of administration, including topically, orally, and by inhalation.
Curcumin, a yellow pigment from Curcuma longa, is a major component of turmeric and is commonly used as a spice and food-coloring agent. It is also used as a cosmetic and in some medical preparations. The desirable preventive or putative therapeutic properties of curcumin have also been considered to be associated with its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
Curcumin was found to have a miraculous power in anti-inflammatory response.
The natural anti-inflammatory activity of curcumin is on a par with steroidal drugs
and nonsteroidal drugs, which have dangerous side effects.
That is really interesting to see any effect of curcumin on IBD,without toxicity?
