Oral administration of heat-solubilized curcumin for potentially increasing curcumin bioavailability in experimental animals.

摘要

The article by Narayanan et a/. demonstrating the protective effect of curcumin and resveratrol in prostate cancer gives an interesting insight regarding the use of phytochemical combination therapy. It is of interest to note that liposome encapsulated curcumin was used for in vivo experimental animal use in this study to resolve the bioavailability issue of curcumin, resulting from poor absorption.
