Japan’s Theravalues Clinical Trial Claims Curcumin Benefits For Common Cold

Japanese curcumin specialist Theravalues claims to have found via a randomized clinical trial that its Theracurmin and Theracurmin Super dietary supplements can help alleviate some symptoms of the common cold. “However, the level of evidence is weak,” they warn. “Additionally, because the study was based on the reporting of subjective cold-like symptoms, it is was unclear whether the symptoms were actual subjective symptoms caused by an upper respiratory tract infection.”
