Abstract

Upper Tract Transitional Cell Carcinoma (UTUC) With Sarcomatoid Change and Inferior Vena Cava Invasion: Imaging Findings of a Rare Entity

Highlights

Turmeric is a spice that is spread throughout the world’s tropical and subtropical regions
The turmeric powder is about 60-70% carbohydrates, 6-13% water, 6-8% protein, 5-10% fat, 3-7% dietary minerals, 3-7% essential oils, 2-7% dietary fiber, and 1-6% curcuminoids [5]
Direct antioxidant and free-radical scavenging effects and their ability to indirectly increase glutathione levels have been correlated with the anticarcinogenic effects of turmeric and curcumin, thereby aiding in hepatic detoxification of mutagens and carcinogens and inhibiting nitrosamine production

Summary

Introduction

Turmeric is a spice that is spread throughout the world’s tropical and subtropical regions. In many Asian dishes, turmeric is one of the main ingredients, imparting a mustard-like, earthy aroma and pungent, slightly bitter taste to foods. Most of the turmeric is used to impart a golden yellow color in the form of rhizome powder. It is a primary ingredient in curry powders, while turmeric is often used fresh, such as ginger, usually used in its dried, powdered form [3].
