Curcumin is a bright yellow chemical produced by Curcuma longa plants. It is sold as an herbal supplement, cosmetics ingredient, food flavoring, and food coloring.

The therapeutic anti-inflammatory power of turmeric has been known for centuries, but more expanded studies in the last two decades have explained that this potential of turmeric is due to curcumin (diferuloylmethane). The active ingredient, the curcumin, shows potency to regulate numerous transcription factors, cytokines, protein kinases, adhesion molecules, redox status and enzymes that have been linked to inflammation.

Curcumin is a natural pigment that gives the spice turmeric its yellow colour. Despite the potential health benefits of curcumin, Wada and co-workers say that digestive juice in the gastrointestinal tract quickly destroys most curcumin, leading to only a little actually getting into the blood.
