Curry spice could offer treatment hope for tendinitis - Science Daily,

"Tendons, the tough cords of fibrous connective
tissue that join muscles to bones, are essential for movement because they
transfer the force of muscle contraction to bones. However, they are prone
to injury, particularly in athletes who may overstretch themselves and
overuse their joints. Tendinitis (or tendonitis) is a form of tendon
inflammation, which causes pain and tenderness near to joints and is
particularly common in shoulders, elbows, knees, hips, heels or wrists.
Other examples of common tendon disease include tennis and golfer's elbow
and Achilles tendinitis ... introducing curcumin in the culture system
inhibits NF-kB and prevents it from switching on and promoting further
inflammation ... The results follow on from another study by the
Nottingham-Munich collaboration, published in the Journal of Biological
Chemistry earlier this year, demonstrating that a compound found in red wine
could have therapeutic potential for osteoporosis related bone loss in
elderly patients, post-menopausal women and patients with rheumatoid
arthritis ... The research found that resveratrol, a naturally occurring
phytoestrogen found in the skin of red grapes, vines and various other
fruits and nuts, inhibits inflammation in bone cells. Its effects extended
to inhibiting the formation of osteoclasts, giant congregations of
blood-derived cells responsible for bone degeneration, especially in
osteoporosis in later life. Resveratrol prevented NF-kB from switching on to
trigger inflammation" - See
