Turmeric Compounds Regulate Factors Involved in Metabolic Syndrome Conditions
Turmeric compounds suppress the production of inflammatory molecules by cells that promote metabolic syndrome conditions. At the same time turmeric compounds promote beneficial factors that affect metabolism, such as: (vii.1, 8)
- ↑ Production of beneficial hormones.
- ↑ Natural antioxidant defenses.
An additional benefit found in turmeric's curcumin compounds is the ability to behave in opposite ways, depending on the cell. So for instance, curcumin promotes PPAR-γ proteins in the liver to protect it from fatty liver disease, but suppresses it in fat cells to prevent fat cell growth and obesity. (vii.9)
Some examples of the effects of the factors on metabolic syndrome and how turmeric compounds activities can help include: (vii.1, 8, 10-16)
Block growth factor proteins that stimulate excess blood vessels.
Reduce high leptin levels in the blood.
Stimulate adiponectin, a hormone that helps fight obesity and other metabolic syndrome conditions.
Suppress bad fat's macrophage cells.
Prevent and reduce proteins that create chronic inflammation.
Protect the cells in the pancreas that produce insulin.
Help safely regulate factors that control metabolism and cell energy.
