Turmeric is a traditional herbal remedy that has been used for
centuries and in recent years has been hailed as a "miracle cure"
for a range of illnesses from arthritis to auto-immune disease.
Penelope Ody, one of Britain's leading herbalists, draws on the
extensive scientific studies that have appeared on curcuminoids
(one of the many chemical constituents of turmeric) in one of the
most authoritative book on turmeric currently available. In
Turmeric Penelope Ody provides a history of turmeric and its
therapeutic role. From its cultivation to its traditional use in
Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine to its centrality to the Asian diet
(including some recipes, since many will be familiar with turmeric
as a culinary spice). Turmeric has been used medicinally in South
Asia for more than 4,000 years; today its antioxidant and
anti-inflammatory properties are well established and may be
helpful for a host of illnesses, from arthritis and diabetes to
Alzheimer's and heart disease. Penelope Ody investigates this
ancient remedy's suitability for twenty- first century ailments
separating the hysteria about its benefits from a realistic
evaluation into how it can help to improve any reader's health.
