Cannot imagine slugging it down the way you do. I'd have to add at least an equal amount of chocolate syrup. Or Sriracha.
Actually, the Sriracha might fix your knees. YOu can just rub it on. LOL

I’ve been making a turmeric-ginger “bug” for about a year. Recipes are on line.
Fermentation is supposed to make turmeric more bioavailabile. I put this “bug” in my breakfast smoothie every morning. T
Fresh turmeric root is available at health food markets.
You are being very polite to tumeric. I'd say it tastes strongly of dirt and soil.
I take it for inflamation in my knees. I told my doc about it, and he approved, but said I'd need to put a lot in my food to get any benefit, as it is not in the best, most available format.
I told him that I did not add it to food, but rather used a heaping teaspoon + water to make a paste and just forced it down my gullet, as it is so nasty I have not found a way to mitigate the dirt taste by mixing it into other food (it just ruins the food!)
The doc said to keep doing this. He also said I cannot OD on it.
What do you take coconut oil for?

to reduce inflammation. I a use it on my skin and hair, I use it to replace any oil called for in a recipe. I also use it to clean my teeth and it has eliminated my inflamed gums completely, even my dentist noticed and he said some of his other patients have mentioned using it. He can’t understand why it works but he does notice a difference in the patients that use it. I am trying it on cracked finger tips now. I have to type with my finger nails because of the split skin on my fingers.
I mix it in V8 every morning.
I used to chase a spoonful of Cod Liver Oil with V8 but my wife finally laid down the law about the smell of the oil. Now I just take fish oil pills.
There are turmeric pills
