Morning! I had to get in on this conversation! LOL!

I started taking turmeric supplements about a year and a half ago. I have no more knee swelling and most of the arthritis pain is gone. I was at a point where I woke up in the middle of the night with my knees hurting. Shopping was awful. I would have to lean on a cart just to get through the store. Mind you, it is not perfect. I still have some knee pain on rainy days and sometimes I still feel it going up and down stairs. But it is not even close to what it used to be.

:-)

I will have to get more regular on my regimen. Eccentric exercises (up and down on a slant board) have helped tremendously for runners knee. As effective as surgery without the cost. :)

That’s wonderful!

I was quite skeptical about it, but after 3 weeks I didn’t have to decide between the pain of bending over vs the pain of getting up off my knees. And nothing else in my routine had changed except the turmeric!

Good to hear, sneakers! I need to get more regular with my dosing. I mentioned to CB that I need to just take a maintenance dose. It really helped with my stiff back episode I had a few weeks ago.
