I package my own turmeric capsules. And garlic, and cinnamon, and ginger, and cayenne, and black pepper.

A couple of hours every couple of months, and it’s a LOT cheaper than buying the stuff in the store.

3. Add it to rice.

Try turmeric with pepper:

About 3% black pepper (capsaicin) improves the bioavailability of turmeric,
making smaller doses more effective.
Mix 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper with 1/4 cup turmeric.
Pre-mixed turmeric-capsaicin supplement capsules are available on Amazon.

Black pepper does not contain capsaicin. Only chiles do.

A sweetener, as needed - Stevia.

FYI, the OP ran this thread earlier in the week regarding stevia:

Oops! May bad. You are correct.

Black pepper contains piperine, also an antioxidant.

Yep. Another really good way to get some turmeric in your diet is cowboy candy, which is sliced jalapenos in a syrup that’s spiced with turmeric among other things. I need to make and can another batch before too long.
