When we say that a substance is able to act upon a multiple myeloma, on a pancreatic carcinoma, on bone marrow diseases, on colon tumors, on psoriasis and on Alzheimer's disease, this signifies that these illnesses have strong common roots. Therefore, the same mechanism of action (modulated by turmeric) can help to modify pathologic processes that are seemingly so different from each other.
An important study published on Cellular and Molecular Life Science, described these various aspects, calling attention to the common action of nuclear kB factors (NF-kB) and of other signal paths (Hatcher H et al, Cell Mol Life Sci. 2008 Jun;65(11):1631-52) that provided these results.
In 2006, Bazar described the link between obesity and depression thereby recognizing the role of insulin resistance as a possible common mechanism in a series of apparently different diseases. Since that time, Eurosalus has been discussing this aspect, the link between cancer, depression, allergy, insulin resistance and heart disease.
The same news also arrived from the World Cancer Research Fund defining the close connection between obesity, inflammatory cytokines and tumors.
The knowledge of turmeric's action is based on the relatively recent discovery about nuclear factors that regulate the cell's signal paths. Just as diet, excess sugar and carbohydrates can activate NF-kB and cause inflammation and disease, so Turmeric can inhibit and regulate the activation of these nuclear factors, allowing the body to remain healthy.
This is reason enough to add a little turmeric to your daily routine. Experts say that it single-handedly guarantees an excellent base for defending yourself from a variety of hostile forces...
