TI  - Effect of dietary turmeric (Curcuma longa) on iron-induced lipid peroxidation in 
      the rat liver.
PG  - 279-83
AB  - Male Wistar rats were fed a control diet or the control diet supplemented with 1% 
      (by weight) turmeric for 10 wk. In rats injected with 30 mg Fe2+/kg body weight, 
      lipid peroxidation was 29 and 35% lower in liver homogenates and microsomes, 
      respectively, of turmeric-fed rats than in those of rats fed the control diet. 
      The activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase were 
      higher (by 19, 19 and 20%, respectively) in liver homogenates of rats fed the 
      turmeric-containing diet in comparison with the controls. These studies indicate 
      that dietary turmeric lowers lipid peroxidation by enhancing the activities of 
      antioxidant enzymes.
