Preclinical studies identified several mechanistic pathways through which curcumin may alleviate DACD, including anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects via NF-B, NLRP3, AKAP150/PKA/PP2B, miR-146a-5p/ERK, BDNF/TrkB, ROS-ERK1/2, GABA receptors, Keap1-Nrf2-ARE, and regulation of intestinal flora
The caveat remains that human clinical trial data confirming these effects does not yet exist
It works by restoring the biological signaling that illness, inflammation, and cellular dysfunction have disrupted which is precisely the goal in long COVID recovery
