I’ve been taking daily 500 mg of turmeric from February to August, then increased dosage twice from August to September. Beginning October I am now taking turmeric with 10% pepper. My overall well being is satisfactory and it has proven it’s anti-inflammatory effect on me. I am a senior citizen and I believe in this herbal miracle!

“In these tests, curcumin became 12 times more soluble when heated. Turmeric, in comparison, became only 3 times as soluble.”
