WHAT IS CURCUMIN AND WHAT DOES SCIENCE SAY ABOUT IT?

Curcumin is the most potent compound of turmeric. It is derived from the plant’s rhizomes and has been scientifically found to display powerful anti-inflammatory properties by suppressing several cell signaling pathways. Thanks to this ability, Curcumin is useful against inflammatory diseases, including osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. In addition, Curcumin is also an anti-microbial agent with an ability to fight many chronic diseases. It is a safe and tolerable ingredient that works best with a complementary nutraceutical, like Piperine, to enhance its bioavailability. [1]

BENEFITS 

Curcumin has multiple benefits, and chief among them is its ability to promote the health of bones and joints.

1. HELPS FIGHT OSTEOARTHRITIS

Osteoarthritis is a condition in which the cartilage between bones in a joint begins to break down. Cartilage acts as the protective tissue between bones. When it breaks down, the bones start to rub against each other, causing pain and reduced physical function.

The Curcumin and Piperine combination, as is found in this supplement by Morpheme Remedies, has been scientifically acknowledged as “a new paradigm in the management of osteoarthritis”. A study was conducted on 44 Indian osteoarthritic patients to determine the efficacy of both Curcumin and Piperine in alleviating symptoms of the disease. The group consisting of 28 female and 16 male patients was given 500mg of Curcumin and 5mg of Piperine twice a day for 12 weeks. The study observed a “statistical significant reduction in pain, stiffness” and improvement in physical function among the patients at the end of the period. Curcumin was found to promote extracellular matrix accumulation and reduce cartilage degradation. [2]

Curcumin is particularly effective against knee osteoarthritis. In a scientific study, 40 patients of knee osteoarthritis were given either three doses of curcumin or placebo for six weeks. At the end of the clinical trial, the patients who received Curcumin showed a significant reduction in pain and better physical function. None of the patients had any adverse effects of ingesting Curcumin [3]. Another study done on 50 patients concluded that Curcumin indeed has the potential for management of human knee osteoarthritis. [4]

2. HELPS FIGHT RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS

Rheumatoid Arthritis is a condition in which many joints in the body are inflamed. It is an autoimmune disease that causes inflammation in joint lining, causing pain, swelling, and reduced physical function. Curcumin displays powerful anti-inflammatory property to be useful against rheumatoid arthritis. It inhibits the enzymes responsible for producing prostaglandins, which are compounds that trigger inflammation and cause pain and swelling. [5]

A scientific study was done in the year 2018 on 36 male and female patients of rheumatoid arthritis aged from 22 to 55 years. The patients were given either two different doses of Curcumin or placebo for 90 days. The study observed that the patients who were given Curcumin showed significant improvement in multiple assessment criteria, including reduced swollen and tender joints. [6] In another study on 45 patients of rheumatoid arthritis, a daily dose of 500mg of Curcumin turned out to be safer and superior to even diclofenac sodium on various assessment scores in alleviating the symptoms of the disease. [7]

3. HELPS RELIEVE PAIN

Turmeric is a potent analgesic. Simply put, it helps relieve pain. A meta-analysis of eight scientific studies involving 606 patients with different painful conditions acknowledges the efficacy of curcuminoids in reducing pain significantly. The review concluded that “curcuminoids supplements may be a safe and effective strategy” to combat pain. [8]

Another review of three scientific studies done on patients with osteoarthritis found that Curcumin “significantly decreased pain severity” within four to six weeks. The patients reported an improved quality of life as a result of pain reduction after taking the Curcumin supplement. [9]

4. HELPS PROMOTE CARDIOVASCULAR HEALTH

Curcumin is also a potent antioxidant that suppresses cardio-toxicity that helps reduce risk of diabetic cardiovascular complications. It helps decrease serum cholesterol levels and inhibits development of cardiac hypertrophy. [10] A review of seven scientific studies done on 649 patients of cardiovascular disease concluded that turmeric and curcumin may protect CVD patients by improving their serum lipid levels. [11] Curcumin’s ability to promote cardiac repair and ameliorate cardiac dysfunction has also been observed in an in-vivo study. [12]

5. A SOURCE OF ANTIOXIDANTS

Curcumin is a rich source of antioxidants that protect our bodies from the harmful effects of free radicals by inducing glutathione biosynthesis and inhibiting NF-kappaB activation. [13]

6. HELPS FIGHT BRAIN DISORDERS

Curcumin may help fight age-related neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Huntington’s, and prion diseases, thanks to its promising anti-amyloid, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties. [14]

7. IT MAY FIGHT CANCER

Curcumin’s anticancer and chemo-preventive effects have been demonstrated in studies on cancer prevention. This results support curcumin’s anti-proliferative, antioxidant, and carcinogen blocking properties. Curcumin exhibits anti-cancer activity due to proapoptotic promotion, anti-inflammatory actions, and reactive oxygen stress. [15]
