Does anyone have any OTC brand and dosage recommendations?

From the article, pertaining to IBD:

“In a 12-week study of people with mild to moderate Crohn’s disease, those who took curcumin supplements (360 milligrams a day) saw improvements in their symptoms. By week 12, 40% of participants no longer saw symptoms. While these results are promising, more research is needed to determine curcumin’s ideal dosage, frequency, and duration for managing IBD.”

dosage recommendations?

I aim to do this daily, probably actually have it about 5x per week:

Golden Cocoa:

Coconut milk (not oat milk, regular milk could work)

1 tblspn, heaping, Turmeric

1 tsp cinnamon

1 tblspn, heaping, unsweetened cocoa

Good spritz of liquid stevia (powdered is crap!)

Heat and mix

Top with some heavy cream

Be VERY mindful of spillage - turmeric stains counters, floors a hard-to-clean yellow.

“While these results are promising...”

They’re kinda breathtaking, actually.

We buy 1 lb bags of organic turmeric from bulk herbs online. Then we put it in gel caps we get at the health food store. I have pretty bad osteo arthritis and one capsule at breakfast and one capsule at dinner keeps it totally under control. Be sure to sprinkle black pepper in the turmeric for best out come.

The stuff from the store or Costco does not work well at all. Use the organic turmeric its cheaper and better.

The devil is in the details. My understanding is that the effective ingredient in Turmeric is Curcumin. I also understand that Curcumin levels can vary significantly between different Turmeric products. So, does anyone know the recommended dosage and frequency of “Curcumin” for combating the varied maladies mentioned in this post?

I had a serious gastric bleed a year ago. Immediately stopped the ibuprofen, turmeric, serrapeptase and nattokinase. A trans-oral endoscopy 3 months later found a healing duodenal ulcer. Another month passed and an ampullary cancer was found. In June, the healed duodenum was cut out as part of the Whipple procedure.

I haven't resumed my turmeric yet. Still lots of gut turmoil from the Whipple. The Qunol product sold at Costco has been my preferred source. 30 ml daily.

Agree 100% on the MCT...

I tend to just take a few tblespoons. Has no taste, easy to drink. Take with food to avoid throat scratchiness.

The brand, One Planet, is recommended by Dr. Blaylock, nano-curcumin which is what is the most bio-available.

Gave it to my husband for four years after he was diagnosed with liver cancer and given less than three months to live:

One of my friends, a retired nurse practitioner, takes it and said it stopped the arthritis pain in her feet.

" turmeric, serrapeptase and nattokinase" Every one of these are blood thinners. Taken together I am not surprised you had problems!

Sorry you had to have the Whipple procedure. Hope you are doing better! ( Note that long term use of Ibuprofen can cause kidney problems.)
