Most people use turmeric as a spice, and it is a chief source of polyphenol curcumin. has therapeutic properties, and since the initial extraction of curcumin from this plant, it has gained prodigious consideration from scientists in the medical field. The biological properties of curcumin, also known as 1,7-bis (4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1,6-heptadiene-3,5-dione, or diferuloylmethane, include anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-cancer, anti-asthmatic, anti-arthritic, neuroprotective, anti-diabetic, anti-obesity, wound-healing, hepatoprotective, skin curative, reproductive role, etc. This work has reviewed many clinical trials and their findings about these activities. The focus of this review manuscript is concentrated on the presently existing clinical and animal studies, which exposed the possible anti-retroviral activities of curcumin and its by-products.
