Not long ago, researchers at the
world-renowned University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center published a
groundbreaking scientific review of their favorite anti-cancer nutrient
— curcumin. Curcumin, along with several other nutrients, is
remarkable in that it can actually tell the difference between a healthy
cell and a cancer cell.
According to Wellness Resources, here is how the researchers explained their interest in curcumin:
“’ … Curcumin (diferuloylmethane) … is one of the most powerful and promising chemopreventive and anticancer agents … How curcumin exerts its powerful anticancer activities has been thoroughly investigated, and several mechanisms of action have been discovered … curcumin exerts its biological activities through epigenetic modulation.’”
In other words, curcumin changes the regulation of DNA to help kill
cancer. In fact, curcumin not only influences epigenetic settings, it
also manages the downstream consequences, helping to guide multiple
steps in the way gene orders are implemented.
