Curcuma longa (turmeric), a member of the Zingiberaceae family, is a perennial herbaceous plant, commonly known for its medicinal properties in traditional Ayurveda. This plant is well-known for its anticancer, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory potential. Various pharmacological properties of turmeric, especially its rhizome, are attributed to the presence of compounds such as curcuminoids (curcumin and demethoxycurcumin) and sesquiterpenoids (ar-turmerone and zingiberene) and volatile oils. This is widely cultivated in India, Asia, and Africa
