Curcumin is an active ingredient of turmeric that exhibits anti-inflammatory properties believed to inhibit cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and lipoxygenase (LOX). Both COX-2 and LOX are important enzymes that mediate inflammatory processes. Improper up-regulation of COX-2 has been associated with arthritis, human cancer, and other inflammatory disorders. Curcumin works to achieve the same benefits of the COX-2 drugs but with out any dangers, with the added benefit that curcumin is non toxic and a potent antioxidant. Inflammation is closely linked to tumor proliferation, this is why curcumin has such a positive effect on tumor growth due to it anti-inflammatory properties.
Formulas that combine curcumin as well as other anti-inflammatory herbs like bromelain, Boswellia, DLPA, to name a few could be a great alternative to over the counter or prescription pain killers with zero side effects which are commonly associated with man made medications.
