Author(s): Abdulla Khan*
Insulin resistance, a key feature of type 2 diabetes mellitus and metabolic syndrome, presents a significant global health challenge. Curcumin, a bioactive compound found in turmeric, has garnered increasing attention for its potential therapeutic effects on various health conditions, including insulin resistance. This review aims to consolidate the current understanding of the beneficial impacts of curcumin on insulin resistance. Numerous preclinical studies have demonstrated the ability of curcumin to improve insulin sensitivity and glucose homeostasis through multiple mechanisms. These include modulation of insulin signaling pathways, attenuation of inflammatory responses, enhancement of antioxidant defenses, and regulation of lipid metabolism. Additionally, emerging evidence suggests that curcumin may exert direct effects on insulin-responsive tissues, including skeletal muscle, a.. View More»
