Since inflammation plays a big role in many diseases and is believed to be involved in onset of both obesity and Type 2 diabetes … For now, the conclusion that Dr. Tortoriello and his colleagues have reached is that turmeric – and its active anti-oxidant ingredient, curcumin – reverses many of the inflammatory and metabolic problems associated with obesity and improves blood-sugar control in mouse models of Type 2 diabetes.”
