Positive experiences
“I have an autoimmune condition that causes chronic pain and while it doesn’t eliminate the pain, I noticed an overall reduction in the intensity day to day.”
“turmeric and black pepper in ALL her foods, a week later she should be better. Works like magic for me.”
“I've moved away from using most of those kinds of products and focus on whole herbs and spices. I get better results and save a ton of money.”
“Turmeric has a very powerful anti inflammatory and brain protective nature... Both have helped level me out mentally and very effectively physically as I have two crippling autoimmune diseases.”
“I drink 5 grams of Turmeric (the spice) every morning before my coffee. IMO, the turmeric makes me feel better than the coffee.”
“i take 1500 mg of turmeric daily... i started taking 750 in the am and 750 in the pm, and it made a noticeable difference for me.”
Negative and mixed experiences
“I’ve tried physical therapy, swimming, exercises, omega-3, turmeric, and other anti-inflammatory stuff—nothing seems to help.”
“I eat 15-20g raw tummeric per day. I cant say I feel a big difference.”
“Whenever I add raw Turmeric & Ginger to my stack, I feel any existing brain fog disappear within 15 minutes... That's very unlikely that chewing on turmeric would affect you so strongly and so quickly.”
“Turmeric and Magnesium make me feel like absolute shit if I take them before sunset.”
“I actually felt like turmeric was killing the effects of the meds so I stopped taking it.”
“I've been taking it about 6 weeks and haven't noticed a benefit.”
