Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation Highlights Curcumin's Benefit for Neurological Diseases
4000 years of use. That’s some history! Curcumin owns it. (Chiropractic enjoys its 125-year history!) Curcumin’s history of dietary use in Eastern countries like China and India offers much fodder to researchers to study just what an impact it has on disease. And there is a difference! Curcumin‘s anti-inflammatory capability is gaining recognition for positive effect on neurological diseases, cell death, and pain. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation remains interested in curcumin’s beneficial role in possible inflammation and Tonawanda back pain reduction.
CURCUMIN HISTORY
Curcumin holds an expansive history of use over 4000 years (1) yet a briefer history of use currently for its ability to control levels of a variety of neurotransmitters in the brain along with preventing cell death. Curcumin influences inflammatory cytokines, growth factors, and enzymes. (2) Back in 2010 researchers posited that curcumin could 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 further clinical studies back then to place curcumin into therapeutic use due to 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 thereby preventing cell death is advantageous. (3) Your Tonawanda chiropractor knows the role of cell death in degenerative spinal conditions like disc disease and values the potential curcumin possesses in dealing with cell death and reducing inflammation and thereby decreasing Tonawanda back pain.
CURCUMIN DIET AND SUPPLEMENTATION
What is the optimal way to integrate curcumin for maximal benefit? Diet and/or supplementation. A curcumin rich diet is reported to offset diseases like cancer and diabetes as well as decrease inflammation. A new report on curcumin brings to light the role curcumin plays in treating neurological diseases (spinal muscular atrophy, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, multiple sclerosis and more). In an effort to effect more attention to curcumin’s benefits, the researchers present the cellular and molecular mechanisms and clinical trial outcomes of using curcumin in healthy people and people with such diseases. (1) Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation knows many Tonawanda chiropractic patients would like the simpler supplementation route which is quite easy and effective. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation will suggest what is right for you and your Tonawanda chiropractic treatment plan.
