This analysis investigates turmeric's preventive and therapeutic impacts on blood coagulation in rats, suggesting potential health benefits.
Eighteen adult male white rats, each weighing between 300 and 400 grams, were utilized in this study. The rats were divided into three groups, each consisting of six rats, and were observed over two weeks. The objective was to determine the effects of the herbal turmeric plant used in complementary medicine, as well as to investigate its active components and its ability to scavenge free radicals. The effectiveness of turmeric extract in both prevention and therapy was evaluated in rats induced to form blood clots using ferric chloride at a concentration of 2% over 14 days. The first group served as the control (C) and received no treatment. The second group (G1) served as the preventive group, receiving 0.5 cc of ferric chloride daily, along with a 70% alcoholic turmeric extract administered orally. The third group (G3) was the induction group, receiving only ferric chloride.
