Curcumin is a potent antioxidant with specific antiviral, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer and cholesterol-lowering effects.

Curcumin is especially recommended for hepatitis C patients. One study found it to be more effective than green tea extract in suppressing viral damage to liver cells. Curcumin induces cancer cell apoptosis. Apoptosis can be defined simply as programmed cancer cell death. Cancer researchers are focusing in on agents that induce apoptosis as the next generation of cancer drugs. Many of the nutrients in the cancer treatment protocol such as selenium, vitamin A, green tea and vitamin D3 induce apoptosis.

The most effective nutrient available to induce apoptosis may be curcumin. Curcumin is an antioxidant extract from the spice turmeric that produces a wide range of health benefits. Cancer patients should be taking 2000 mg to 4000 mg a day of curcumin extract with a heavy meal. In a wide range of cancer cells, curcumin has been shown to induce cell shrinkage, chromatin condensation, DNA fragmentation and block cellular signal transduction, all of which are characteristics of apoptosis according to an article published in the journal Nutrition and Cancer USA (26/1 1996).
