Alan And Susan: Here is a good link that does talk about Medical
research interest in Turmeric.

I have personally experienced the healing properties of Turmeric wrt
curing a bad cough and deep cuts. And like most Indians I too use
plenty of Turmeric in my cooking. That did not prevent me from getting
Diabetes.

What is indeed interesting in India and China as well is that as the
living standard improved so did % people affected by Diabetes. After
reading "The China Study" I am totally convinced that the significant
increase in consumption of milk and associated products amongst Indian
population is main culprit in driving the numbers high. What has not
helped is the same population that can afford higher standard living is
also doing less and less of physical activity. I would not be surprised
if the numbers explode in both these countries and may very well catch
up or bypass US 6%!

Yes yes I know many of you don't buy the "The China Theory" findings
and that is just fine with me. I personally do find a high degree of co
relationship. And yes I have become Vegan just for that reason and feel
perfectly fine so far. (But then again I am in my honeymoon period
right now!).

I suspect that the increase may have more to do with the
gradual increase in diagnoses as the increased standard of
living led to a higher availability of qualified doctors in
rural and low-income regions.
