"A symposium [about ageing and age-related diseases] revealed that ageing is manifested by the decreasing health status and increasing probability to acquire age-related disease such as cancer, Alzheimer's disease, atherosclerosis...and others.

"They are likely to be caused by low-grade inflammation driven by oxygen stress... It is believed that ageing is plastic [capable of being molded] and can be slowed down by caloric restriction as well as by some nutraceuticals [herbs and food extracts including curcumin.] Accordingly, slowing down ageing and postponing the onset of age-related diseases might be achieved by blocking [certain]-independent inflammation.

"In this review we consider the possibility of the spice curcumin, a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent possibly capable of improving the health status of the elderly."
