Turmeric: The Golden Defense in Cancer Prevention and Support
Turmeric, or Curcuma longa, is celebrated for its culinary and medicinal uses, particularly its anti-cancer potential due to curcumin. Studies highlight curcumin's efficacy in inhibiting cancer cell growth and inducing apoptosis across various cancer sites. However, its limited bioavailability poses a challenge, with solutions like smaller particle dispersion and combining with piperine improving absorption. Commonly used in food, turmeric is safe in culinary amounts, though doses for supplements vary and require medical consultation.
