What people say about Curcumin and mood
“I recently stopped taking Curcumin because of its affect on DHT and I was looking for an alternative measure to deal with inflammation as I feel it really helped with anxiety/depression.”
“Ive been taking it for about a year now maybe a bit longer for anti inflamatory properties and i can tell a bit of a difference but the real stand out is my memory.”
“Awesome, another plus for curcumin. For me it's having a wide range of benefits from improved immunity to significant reduction in chronic pain.”
“Holy shit, I am so glad I picked it up. It has 90% eradicated my catastrophizing and anxiety. I take 1 ~400 mg pill in the morning, and 1 in the afternoon/evening.”
