美國斯隆.凱特琳癌癥研究中心中心（Memorial Sloan Kettering）科研人員發(fā)現(xiàn)，患癌大鼠在喂食姜黃后，它們體內的腫瘤細胞得到抑制。
英國國家廣播公司節(jié)目主持人莫斯利醫(yī)生（Michael Mosley）決定測試人食用姜黃的實際效果。他召集了約100名志愿者做一個有關姜黃的實驗。實驗過程中讓志愿者連續(xù)吃含姜黃的食品六周。最終經(jīng)過檢驗，驗證了姜黃的抗腫瘤效果。
部分原文報道如下：
Eating turmeric each day was found to improve a gene that causes depression, asthma, eczema and cancer, according to research conducted by Dr. Michael Mosley of BBC's “Trust Me, I'm a Doctor.”
The six-week study used 100 volunteers from northeast Great Britain. A third of them ate a teaspoon of turmeric each day with their food in whatever method they pleased. A third took supplement pills with the same amount of turmeric, and the rest took a placebo.
