Research highlighting turmeric’s powerful health-boosting properties
just seems to never cease, with some recent research showing yet again
that the super spice can help to prevent diabetes risk thanks to the
spice’s active compound curcumin.
What’s more, the compound helps to prevent diabetes among those with pre-diabetes – indicated that extremely high blood sugar levels that could ultimately result in type 2 diabetes.
Without a doubt, there is a clear connection between turmeric and diabetes prevention.
Published in the journal Diabetes Care, the study involved 240 Thai adults with prediabetes. The participants were divided into 2 groups, with one group taking curcumin capsules containing 250 milligrams of curcuminoids, while the other was given a placebo. After a 9 month period, it was found that 19 individuals of the 116-person placebo group developed type 2 diabetes, while none of the participants of the 199-person curcumin group developed the disease.
