According to some studies, curcumin in turmeric blocks the multiplication of cancer cells. Studies in rats have shown that curcumin partially neutralizes damage to cells in the liver, kidneys and brain, preventing cancer in these organs. The National Cancer Foundation is funding two studies looking into turmeric. Scientists have found that this spice prevents the formation of tumors.
Warning: Turmeric is not a substitute for medicines, but only a supplement to the daily diet!
