Curcumin is an active ingredient in turmeric that boasts powerful antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and cancer-fighting effects.<\/p>\n

Researchers have investigated curcumin for its potential in improving Parkinson\u2019s, Alzheimer\u2019s, and stroke damage. It can also promote brain health as a result of its potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.<\/p>\n

From cancer research labs come studies that show curcumin interferes with several important molecular pathways involved in development, growth, and spread of cancer. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Curcumin can kill cancer cells in the laboratory and slow the growth of surviving cancer cells. <\/strong><\/p>\n

In animals, curcumin has been shown to inhibit the formation of cancer-causing enzymes and the development of several forms of cancer, as well as shrinking tumors. <\/strong>Human studies of curcumin\u2019s benefits in cancer prevention and treatment are in the early stages.<\/p>\n

Some scientific studies indicate that curcumin is not well-absorbed orally. Consequently, large doses are required for small amounts to reach the blood. More-absorbable forms of curcumin have been developed, and because curcumin is fat-soluble, it\u2019s important to take oral curcumin with some form of fat.<\/p>\n

At the Hernandez Center, we administer curcumin via IV infusion<\/strong> in carefully moderated doses, so that it can go directly to the cells where it is needed.<\/p>\n

Preliminary results with our patients show that curcumin can relieve the inflammation caused by chemotherapy and decrease tumor markers on conventional cancer monitoring blood tests.<\/strong><\/p>\n

For naturopathic doctors, curcumin comes as yet another wonderful gift from the Earth \u2013 with few or no side effects, and powerful positive results for our health.<\/p>\n
