Unexpected effects of Nano Curcumin in supporting the treatment of stomach ulcers.
Nano curcumin's ability to inhibit HP bacteria (Helicobacter Pylori), support anti-inflammation and heal ulcers makes this active ingredient effective in treating stomach diseases. So specifically, how does nano curcumin affect HP bacteria?
Research proves the effect of nano curcumin in supporting effective treatment of HP bacteria
On Pubmed of the US National Library, there are thousands of research projects proving that curcumin - the active ingredient extracted from turmeric has countless benefits for human health. For stomach diseases, curcumin has shown its ability to help inhibit HP bacteria, support ulcer healing, and restore damage...
Accordingly, curcumin fights 65 strains of HP bacteria - the cause of stomach ulcers and restores stomach damage caused by that type of bacteria. This result was recorded from the research project Evaluating the antibacterial effect of curcumin against Helicobacter Pylori in mice by the National Research Institute of Digestive Diseases, India in 2009.
Another study on curcumin with stomach diseases was also conducted at the Pharmacy Research Center, Siriraj Hospital, Bangkok, Thailand. In a clinical trial on the effectiveness of turmeric curcumin essence on 45 patients with signs of duodenal ulcers. After 4 weeks of treatment with curcumin, 12 cases (48%) had no ulcers, 18 cases had no ulcers after 8 weeks and 19 cases (76%) had no ulcers after 12 weeks.
Although curcumin has many beneficial effects for stomach diseases by helping to fight HP bacteria, supporting ulcer healing and reducing damage, this active ingredient also has many limitations. Specifically, curcumin is insoluble in water and difficult to absorb into the body, so the treatment effectiveness is reduced. To overcome this, scientists have continuously improved, in which the birth of nano curcumin is a typical medical achievement to help turmeric maximize its effectiveness and be safer.
