A recent study on breast cancer research and treatment links certain compounds found in spices to a reduction in cancerous cells in breast tissue. The study suggests that specific dietary compounds, Curcumin and piperine, may promote healthy breast tissue. Researchers have found that Curcumin (found in turmeric) and piperine (found in black pepper), decreased the number of cancerous stem cells while non-cancerous stem cells were unaffected.
This research used amounts of Curcumin and piperine that were approximately 20 times greater than what you could consume from food, but these amounts are commonly available in dietary supplements.
