- How to Boost Your Intake of Polyphenol Antioxidants - wikiHow: Polyphenols have recently been termed ?lifespan essentials?, and they actively work in the body to prevent certain disease mechanisms from occurring. Polyphenols are antioxidants from plant foods that work in the body to enhance health in complex ways, and as such they are not simply antioxidants. Their specific health-promoti ng actions are still being actively researched, and it is generally recognized that they can reduce the risk factors for cardiovascular disease and basically help to protect many body systems from the risks or ravages of many types of chronic disease. Boosting one's intake of antioxidant polyphenols on a daily basis is easy to do, and can be a tasty, gourmet adventure.

It also suggests that turmeric may have a use in other inflammatory disorders, such as asthma, multiple sclerosis and inflammatory bowel disease. In addition to preventing joint inflammation, Dr. Funk's study shows that the curcuminoid extract blocked the pathway that affects bone resorption.

- Curcumin from turmeric causes a substantial increase in intracellular Glutathione Levels - Caffeic Acid Phenethyl Ester and Curcumin: A Novel Class of Heme Oxygenase-1 Inducers -- Scapagnini et al. 61 (3): 554 -- Molecular Pharmacology: Curcumin from turmeric causes a substantial increase in intracellular Glutathione Levels. In this study, we analyzed the potency of curcumin as an inducer of HO-1 expression and heme oxygenase activity in astrocytes, and we explored whether a similar effect could be obtained with caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), another structurally related phenolic originating from plants. CAPE is, in fact, an active component of propolis derived from the bark of conifer trees and carried by honeybees to their hives. The similarity to curcumin is striking because CAPE has a broad spectrum of biological activities, including anti-inflammat ory (Natarajan et al., 1996; Michaluart et al., 1999), antioxidant (Chen et al., 2001), and anti-cancer effects (Frenkel et al., 1993; Huang et al., 1996). We report our finding that CAPE is a potent inducer of HO-1.

As a treatment, turmeric also has some enticing attributes. Because curcumin targets so many biological pathways, it could have benefits for cancer therapy: malignant cells may be slow to acquire resistance to it and so might have to go through multiple mutations to avoid the substance' ;s multipronged attack.

LINUX user Reiner Grißhammer: blogspot*com -Turmeric contains more than two dozen anti-inflammat ory compounds, including sixdifferent COX-2-inhibito rs (the COX-2 enzyme promotes pain, swelling and inflammation; inhibitors selectively block that enzyme). By itself, curcumin - the component in turmeric most often cited for its healthful effects - is a multifaceted anti-inflammat ory agent, and studies of the efficacy of curcumin have demonstrated positive changes in arthritic symptoms.

- Linus Pauling Institute at Oregon State University - Curcumin increases cellular glutathione levels. Glutathione is the most important intracellular antioxidant that plays a critical role in cellular adaptation to stress. LINUX user Reiner Grißhammer: Linus Pauling Institute at Oregon University - Studies in cell culture suggest that curcumin can increase cellular glutathione levels. Glutathione is the most important intracellular antioxidant that plays a critical role in cellular adaptation to stress. Glutathione (GSH) is a tripeptide: L-cysteine, L-glutamic acid and glycine. Glutathione, an antioxidant, protects cells from toxins such as free radicals. Glutathione exists in reduced (GSH) and oxidized (GSSG) states. GSH can be regenerated from GSSG by the enzyme glutathione reductase. In healthy cells and tissue, more than 90% of the total glutathione pool is in the reduced form (GSH) and less than 10% exists in the disulfide form (GSSG). An increased GSSG-to-GSH ratio is considered indicative of oxidative stress. Glutathione is also needed for the detoxification of methylglyoxal, a toxin produced as a by-product of metabolism. Tissue and serum glutathione concentrations can be raised by increased intake of the precursor cysteine.
