Does Turmeric, Resveratrol, Seaweed, or Anthocyanins (berries /fruit) have any morphology enhancing, or body structural organizing properties? Or is it a scam?

From what I can tell the small molecules are inhibitors, which block cell receptors, and cause cell cycle arrest. This could lead to autophagy, mitophagy, or cell death. But I don’t understand how those process actually translate to benefits. The evidence seems to be mostly in active wounds? Most of the compounds are anti-inflammatory.
They do not seem to be used by the cells.

Just wondering if there are any effects that actual cause regeneration or reorganization of tissue toward function. Or if all the studies on these are fakes.
