Thanks but I plan to be cremated!
Yeah. I take curcumin to reduce inflammation from a herniated disc. It usually takes care of the problem so I don't need to go in for a prescription for steroids. Taking it with aspirin and black pepper increases uptake from your digestive system.
I have some turmeric in the cupboard. How much should a person consume?
My brother has been taking it for weeks knock on wood so far so good he takes it in capsules
“ Turmeric cures cancer, increases your lifespan and improves your sex life. I didn’t list the other 958 benefits of turmeric.”
I can help.
Curcumin, the active portion of turmeric, kills cancer stem cells, reduces inflammation, lowers blood sugar, improves artery function almost as much as exercise, etc.
You can buy it in a jar and not have to bother. with breaking open. capsules.
I read some time ago that turmeric was supposed help reduce psoriasis. I didn’t particularly like the taste, but I gave it a shot for a month or so, as I recall.
It did nothing for me.
[Regular UVB treatments keep the psoriasis at bay for me.]

And it can also be toxic.
You are paying up the nose if you buy it this way. Go to an ethnic Indian goods store and pay pennies compared to McCormick products.
“Please don’t make an ass of yourself on yet another thread tonight. “
ROTFLMAO!
Garbage is Garbage.
I sprinkle it on my eggs.
Many years ago some guy had an Ibizan Hound dying from Valley Fever [coccidioidomycosis] and the vets could do nothing.
I told him to give her turmeric and she was well again in a week.
Show dog...she had a litter of pups 4 months later.
Useful for some things, I reckon.
Also, taking it with fat helps.
“It’s an anti-imflammitory, isnt it?”
Yep. There will be nay-sayers, but all I can say is, I started taking it for my plantar fasciitis, my aching hip, back and finger joints, and it helps a lot. I had my doubts but was desperate for some relief and wanted to get some function back. Took several weeks but then noticed the achey places weren’t so noisy and I was functioning better. Wow! I can walk the dog without being miserable! I’m not constantly aware of aches and pains. So I’m sticking with it.
So is MSM, [Methylsulfonylmethane] mostly used for joint pain.
It’s also a sulfur and few things have developed a resistance to an element, yet.

Just put half or quarter teaspoon in rice to make yellow rice, It does not take much at all. Curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric(among with many others) is responsible for the yellow color in prepared mustard. Don’t forget a pinch of black pepper, it greatly enhances bodily absorption.
Thank you!! Now to find rice at the store!!
Look up “Golden Paste”
Good job.
