Curcumin has been shown to exert powerful inhibitory effects on NF-kappaB activation.8-13
Curcumin also inhibits the metabolism of arachidonic acid, as well as the activities of cyclooxygenase, lipoxygenase, and cytokines (interleukins and tumor necrosis factors).14-17 Other clinical trials suggest that curcumin can promote healthybowel function and joint health.18-28
