I keep hearing about Curcumin

Has anyone heard of curcumin for helping cure cancer and other diseases.

I know DR  Mercola has a lot of stories on his website about this topic.

Has anyone tried it for any reason.

I think it is made from turmeric but not sure.

Tumeric contains curcumin, and it does have a great deal of biological activity, as do most spices.  It almost certainly does have some beneficial effects on health, but the chances of it curing cancer in any individual are remote.  Having said that, I eat a lot of Indian foof, and I don't have cancer yet!  Smiley Very Happy

But to find a graceful way of staying slid
