CLAIM CARD
Mechanistically, the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant pathways implicated in curcumin's cardiometabolic effects align with broader inflammaging biology. Yaikwawong 2025b specifically identified attenuation of liver steatosis through antioxidant and anti-inflammatory pathways in obese patients with T2DM, providing a direct mechanistic link between curcumin supplementation and hepatic lipid metabolism. The convergence of these mechanistic human studies and preclinical data supports biological plausibility for curcumin's cardiometabolic effects, though the specific contribution of curcumin versus other polyphenols requires further delineation.
