Turmeric could help against breast cancer- research
Curcumin in turmeric could do the trick.
13/06/05 Turmeric powder, commonly used in Indian cooking, contains a chemical called Curcumin, which may help curb breast cancer from spreading, a new research has revealed.
The study by Texas University researchers involved mice instead of human beings, and therefore, the researchers are not suggesting people to use curcumin for cancer-related reasons.
Turmeric, which has also been a traditional medicine in India for quite a long time, is now also getting attention from the West. And Curcumin, an antioxidant that gives turmeric its yellow color, is on the National Cancer Society's list of compounds that have shown some evidence of cancer prevention.
