For centuries, people of India have venerated turmeric as a spice and as a medicine. Turmeric has been utilised in traditional medicine since the dawn of mankind. Turmeric and its value-added derivatives are produced, marketed, and exported in large quantities by India. Curcuma longa (Turmeric) is a popular and widely available rhizomatous medicinal herb from India that belongs to the Zingiberaceae family. Turmeric is made up of curcumin, demethoxycurcumin, and bisdemethoxycurcumin, which are all known as curcuminoids. Turmeric has been recommended as a natural antibiofilm and antioxidant agent. One of the main constituents of turmeric, curcumin shows great immunoboosting activity and anti-inflammatory action. The chemical changes in the structure of curcumin may lead to effective modification in its antioxidant as well as water solubility which increases its bioavailability. Turmeric has long been used as a home remedy for coughs, sore throats, and respiratory illnesses and it may also be a good immune booster against SARS-CoV-2 treatments in the current pandemic. Thus, turmeric and its compounds have the potential to be used in modern medicine to cure a variety of illnesses.
