One curry a day with curcumin to prevent cardiovascular inflammation

When talking about India, it is hard not to think of the fragrant curry. It is not only a must-eat delicacy for more than one billion Indians every day, but also transcends cultural barriers and is deeply loved by people from all over the world. Now everyone has another reason to taste it; scholars from the University of Oregon in the United States pointed out that the "curcumin" in curry can stimulate the body to secrete proteins that strengthen the immune system, making it difficult for bacteria and viruses to attack the body.

Eating curry regularly can strengthen the immune system and keep diseases away.

The British Daily Mail recently reported that curcumin is the source of the orange pigment and aroma in curry. Regular consumption can increase the concentration of "cathelicidin anti-microbial peptide" (CAMP) (i.e. immune system protein) in the body by 3 times. It can not only fight against bacteria that cause tuberculosis and sepsis, but recent studies have also shown that it can block the invasion of more than 100 types of cancer cells, especially colon cancer cells. It is also an antioxidant that is very helpful in preventing cardiovascular inflammation.

It is understood that "antimicrobial peptide cathelicidin" is the only antibody protein that can be produced by the body. In the past, many people would stimulate its production by taking vitamin D. However, once excessive intake is taken, a large amount of calcium in the bones will be released into the blood. Therefore, curcumin would be a better substitute. Many pharmaceutical companies have begun to use curcumin as the main raw material for pharmaceutical production, and ordinary people can also achieve the dual effects of satisfying their taste buds and strengthening their bodies by eating curry.
