The latest research indicates that curcumin, the active ingredient of turmeric, may help to reduce and/or prevent Ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease.

Researchers found that mice pretreated with curcumin experienced a clear reduction in intestinal inflammation. The researchers also noted a reduction in DNA binding and inhibition of NF-kappa B activation. This is similar to what Inflixmab does.

So sprinkle turmeric on your veg and stir fry's and see if you notice any improvements!
