Aaron Chiropractic Clinic Highlights Curcumin's Benefit for Neurological Diseases
4000 years of consumption. That’s quite a history! Curcumin owns it. (Chiropractic delights in its 125-year history!) Curcumin’s history of dietary use in Eastern countries like China and India offers much fodder to researchers to examine just what an influence it makes on disease. And there is a difference! Curcumin as an anti-inflammatory substance is finding recognition for positive influence on neurological diseases, cell death, and pain. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic continues to study curcumin’s positive role in potential inflammation and Fort Wayne back pain reduction.
CURCUMIN HISTORY
Curcumin has an expansive history of use going back 4000 years (1) yet a briefer history of use currently for its ability to modulate levels of various neurotransmitters in the brain along with preventing cell death. Curcumin affects inflammatory cytokines, growth factors, and enzymes. (2) Back in 2010 researchers speculated that curcumin may well be a “future drug of therapy for the treatment of various neurological disorders.” Diabetic neuropathy, tardive dyskinesia, and major depression are among those such orders. They requested additional clinical studies back then to place curcumin into therapeutic use because of its “neuroprotective action” in diseases like Alzheimer’s, tardive dyskinesia, major depression, epilepsy, and other such neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric disorders. Curcumin’s anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties may add to its neuroprotectiveness. Curcumin’s ability to reduce or stop reactive astrocyte expression and thus preventing cell death is beneficial. (3) Your Fort Wayne chiropractor understands the role of cell death in degenerative spinal conditions like disc disease and values the potential curcumin has in dealing with cell death and reducing inflammation and thus reducing Fort Wayne back pain.
CURCUMIN DIET AND SUPPLEMENTATION
What is the best way to incorporate curcumin for greatest benefit? Diet and/or supplementation. A curcumin rich diet is written to offset diseases like cancer and diabetes as well as decrease inflammation. A new report on curcumin reveals the role curcumin plays in treating neurological diseases (spinal muscular atrophy, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, multiple sclerosis and more). In order to effect more attention to curcumin’s benefits, the researchers present the cellular and molecular mechanisms and clinical trial outcomes regarding the use of curcumin in healthy people and people with such diseases. (1) Aaron Chiropractic Clinic realizes many Fort Wayne chiropractic patients will go the supplementation route as it’s easy and effective. Aaron Chiropractic Clinic will suggest what’s right for you and your Fort Wayne chiropractic treatment plan.
