This is interesting... Liver disease: Curry spice disarms alcohol A simple spice prevents alcohol-induced liver disease, at least in lab rats, researchers report in the Journal of Physiology. Curcumin, the stuff in turmeric that makes curry yellow, contains a natural anti-inflammatory compound. Previous research showed curcumin could suppress tumor blood vessel growth; this new study showed it prevented alcohol-induced inflammation and tissue death. It's the first ever to show curcumin actually could prevent alcoholic liver disease (ALD) in experiments and could offer new hope for treating people at risk of ALD, the researchers say, but more study is needed before they can say whether curcumin will work on already established ALD. usaweekend.com * * *
