We just tried to find the quantity of curcuminoids in curcuma if it was boiled before being turned into powder compared to not being boiled.

We tried to use the HPLC, but it seems that our samplesclogged the column. So we failed 😅.

For our abstract, we did look at other studies on the supposed benefits of curcuma, but none of them were rigorous enough to say that there is a benefit (for example, one study informed the people being tested if they got curcuma or anotherantiinflammatory medicine, which already biases the results)
