Core Tip	The Indian spice curcumin (turmeric) has been widely reported, largely in the preclinical realm, to offer many health - including antineoplastic - benefits. Though this article is not meant as a summative review of all studies of curcumin and radiotherapy, selected studies will be discussed that demonstrate curcumin to be a radiosensitizer of many types of tumor cells. Furthermore, data illustrating curcumin as a radioprotector of normal organs - including clinical studies - are also described. It is a sincere hope that these promising results can lead to curcumin use in cancer patients, either on or off a clinical protocol.
