Definitely go for a standardized 95% curcuminoid supplement (maybe in addition to whole turmeric).
I’ve been taking it for hundreds of years.
Use it as a season with almost anything that has a fat in it, like on fish or in mayo or salad dressing. The amt of fat in whole milk will do the trick. I just used ghee the first time a few days ago, to fry pancakes. Gets nice and hot without smoking. ANd it doesn't need to be refrigerated.
If you have ever had crab legs there was a dipping bowl of ghee. It is just clarified butter that has cooled.
For the rest of you paying out the nose for turmeric, just go to an Indian grocery store. It is something like 2.99 a LB.
Yellow rice with raisins. A great way to ingest turmeric. Cup of rice. 2 cups water. A good handfull of raisins sultanas or other chopped dry fruit. Bring water to a boil. Toss it all in and let it come to a boil again. Cover and set plate to lowest setting. 20 min later perfect delicious rice. Salt and butter to taste in the boil up front.
Nature Maid 450 mg. I have regimen of supplements like omega 3, coq10, cinnamon to keep sugar low and the one turmeric for mild inflammations that come with the grind of daily life. I tripled the turmeric yesterday when the alleve did little.
My daughter had bacterial esophogeal inflammation and her gastroenterologist told her to take 2 450 turmerics a day. The doc is Indian and uses it all the time in her cooking. The difference between her original endoscooy and post treatment endo is mind blowing.
Thanks. I’ll keep it in mind.
Just think what a shot of Jack Daniels with Tumeric would do!
Tricky. While adding turmeric to food is nice, it wont prevent or treat cancer the way CURCUMIN in a supplement capsule with PIPERINE (no point in taking curcumin without piperine from black pepper because its proven 20x more effective with it). Dont buy your supplements at cvs or your grocery store.
I just sprinkle a little on food, don’t really measure it out. I don’t overdo it. Just like sprinkling salt.
Wow, sounds allergic. I take a really strong curcumin supplement and have never felt anything after.
I love the golden milk tea in the winter! But havent tried the iced version in the heat. Probably also good.
Yes but you still asked a valid and very good question. I just eat garlic bulbs and don't try to over garlic or add garlic to other things. Maybe just eating a bit of a plain root is fine for some people too.
Thank you very much for sharing your experience. It is very helpful.
This is just occurring to them????????
Again, the natural health people have been stating this for YEARS.
Granted there are quacks in that market, but overall, they have been spot on about a number of major health issues afflicting humanity.
Or it couldn't.......try it if your stomach can tolerate it......
Ghee is very easily made at home. Melt butter in a pan over med to low heat until the milk solids separate from the oil. Strain into a jar. If you have gotten all the milk out this will keep at room temp. If not, refrigerate until solid and drain off all the liquid left in bottom of jar.
Fermented turmeric is supposed to be the most bioavailable way to ingest.
I make a turmeric ginger bug and drink 2 oz a day in my morning smoothie.
2 c filtered water
1 T grated or powdered turmeric
1 T grated fresh ginger
1 T sugar
Good dash of fresh ground blac pepper
Put in quart jar and cover loosely.
Add another T each of sugar, ginger and turmeric each day for 5 days until it looks like it is boiling. Strain and refrigerate the juice. Start over. Easy Peary.
