As soon as the weather turns cool, especially nights, I would awaken with substantial pain in my fingers. I am surprised and delighted that there is NO PAIN. A joint in my thumb, swollen and painful all the time, is less swollen, but more importantly, there is no pain or tenderness. I have lost 6 lbs in 3 months and didn't know why until I read an article in a women's mag that Turmeric was a weigh...

I was diagnosed RA in 2003. I have been on enbrel and methotrexate for 20 years. Five years later I started taking turmeric curcumin (1650 mg daily). Back in the day when no one talked about it. Over next few weeks inflammation in ankles and hands slowly lessened, until gone. I was totally convinced it was the turmeric because a several years ago I ran out and didn't bother to replenish. Within a couple weeks, inflammation creeping back. Started turmeric again and it went away. This happened a few more times over next few years. Not coincidental! For past five (?) years, I have not gone more than a day without it and that's an extreme rarity. I love turmeric curcumin for my RA.Read More Read Less

Hi all, I've been taking high doses of turmeric w/black pepper supplements for a couple of decades because I struggled with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) since I was 19 or 20 years old. This is a serious skin condition and I'd read in a message board when I was in my 20s that some people had relief from turmeric. It's very easy for my story to become graphic, so let me spare you the details; suffice it to say, I went from having horrible lesions to having one or two tracts of a breakout a year. It's a godsend for HS and I hope you have relief from it, too. There's no HS label in the conditions drop-down menu, so I labeled my post as metabolic syndrome because those of us who get HS often have a higher tendency to be overweight, hence syndrome x or metabolic.

I've been taking Nutrition Geeks Turmeric for about 6 weeks now. I've lived with a lot fo pain due to osteoarthritis for the last 10 years or so with noticeable severe deterioration in the last year alone. Within 4 days I noticed a real difference in my hip pain and shoulder pain. My back pain took about 3 weeks or so to show a difference but I can now walk about, albeit with some back stiffness rather than a lot of pain. I had actually given up work as I could not function because of pain levels but now I feel I have got a reasonable quality of life back. I took these supplements with an open mind but I am very pleased with how the turmeric has actually helped me. They have proven much better than the Naproxen or Ibuprofen tablets I had used before. All in all, I'd say I have improved about 75% and that improvement happened very quickly indeed. I will definitely be taking this supplement every day from now on.Read More Read Less

I started taking Nature's Bounty Turmeric 450mg capsules a few days ago bc I read turmeric helps reduce inflammation & since I have several chronic pain conditions that are possibly involving inflammation, I was hoping it'd help. Well, it seems like since I started taking it, I've been having gas & diarrhea & have had a little blood in the diarrhea. Should mention I've had this happen occasionally before, (I have internal hemorrhoids that act up when I have gas & diarrhea) so I'm not sure if it's a reaction to the turmeric or not.. so I'm going to d/c the turmeric to see what happens. Also I'm not experiencing any decrease of pain but I have been sleeping better...Read More Read Less

After taking one capsule I woke up in the middle of the night scratching. My skin everywhere had a bright red rash. Contacted my doctor and was put on prednisone immediately. Still having effects of this medication. Talk to your physician before taking this medication I wish I did.

While no topical steroids and antihistamines worked. Application of turmeric on lichen planus lesions stopped the irritation for sure

A friend recommended Vimerson health- Turmeric, Quercetin,Bromelain. I have been dealing with neck,shoulder pain,numbness in arms and,hands. Excruciating pain in middle finger at night. Headaches every day. Going to see neurosurgeon next week to review my MRI. Had lower back surgery 5 years ago for stenosis,with great success. I am worried that I may be having the same issue in my neck. Scared. Started taking this supplement 1 week ago and for the past couple nights ,no finger pain and not having the pain in my neck and shoulders as I was. I have not even taken Motrin during the day. Just at bedtime. Has really givin me hope.Read More Read Less

Mild arthritis in my shoulders and right knee, I began using turmeric plus curcumen capsules and decided to give it 2 weeks. I was shocked when in one day my shoulders and right leg pain were completely gone. Amazingly even my teeth started feeling better which I did not expect. What used to be pain is now just a little stiffness after 3 months of taking turmeric plus curcumen capsules.

I am not 100 percent sure that my aching shoulder and hip problem both improved much after a few months taking turmeric or if it had to do with losing some weight. My suspicion is that the turmeric definitely played a part in this since not only my hip but my shoulder both improved after 1. Hip improved after months needing to use crutches and while less dramatically it improved my shoulder joint pain from moderately severe to off and on moderate pain. This was done 8-10 years. Since then I have been less consistent with my turmeric but I have hiked thousands of miles in the Alpes, Pyrenees and two superior hiking trail thruhikes. The turning appears definitely to be as I included turmeric. I started taking double the dose recommended for a month and then the recommended dose for a year or two until I started get complacent. I do take it still, and I would say it is definitely worth a try. My shoulder pain has returned in the past few years but despite all the heavy hiking my hip has been solid and pain free.

The new trend of Tumeric gummies, I fell for. Gummies stain tongue and teeth. Long term it would leave stain on teeth. And has low level of Curcuminoids.

I take turmeric for arthritis pain in my left hip and both knees. Within one week of taking it twice a day, the pain had diminished to about 80% of what it had been for almost a year. After 2 months of taking it, the pain has gone away completely. Amazing as, many days, it had been absolutely debilitating to the point where I was unable to walk more than a couple of blocks. This in a person who has walked at least 5 miles every day for the last 35 years, so not being able to walk was devastating to me. I take one level teaspoon of turmeric in a mug of hot water, with a splash of milk twice a day. I then add 1/4 teaspoon of pepper and half a teaspoon of brown sugar or honey. So miraculous is the mixture, I have stopped taking any other pain killer as turmeric really works. And yes, I did stop drinking the turmeric mixture for about 10 days a couple of months ago due to traveling. My arthritis pain was back to around 70% by the end of the 10 days. Needless to say, I started drinking the turmeric mixture again and the pain has completely disappeared. Read More Read Less

Because of covid I couldn't swim for 1 year. When I returned I felt huge pain in my right shoulder. After 3 months of swimming the pain still hasn't gone. I took 1 pill with 200 mg of curcumin (containing 2,5 mg bioperine). After 4 hours I felt immediate relief. Next day I could hardly felt pain while swimming.
