Just now having a severe attack of gout in my knee. Haven’t had one in four or five years. Alleve effect was marginal. I take one turmeric capsule as a supplement. Yesterday I took three, on morning, afternoon, evening. Today pain is decreased, swelling and inflammation decreased as well.

Very good testimony. May I ask what dosage ( how many grams or milligrams ) of turmeric ( or is it curcumin ) you take to alleviate the pain?

How about supplements, how many mg. is one supplement? Thanks.

Celery 3nB is another great supplement for gout.

For gout attack, indomethacin seems to work the fastest for me. Once a day allopurinol for prevention. But I hate taking a pill everyday. I would rather eat chicken than red meat. This has kept it away for the last couple years.
