User Reviews for turmeric

24 hours after 1st capsule 1000mg the pain in my hands is almost gone.referred by my hand surgery DR.Have to wait

Been using a product from Japan called Turmeron Joint. Apparently it is an extract that includes biochemicals from the plant's essential oils. Worked very well on the OA in my right hip.

I have had arthritis in my hands, feet, legs. Have take Aleve regularly, which I know has side affects if taken over a long period of time. The very first week I no pains, have not taken a pill of any sort for pain, even on rainy days. But I do have an irregular heartbeat, which I am on med. for...I feel it a little more often, so maybe I will go off turmeric and see which problem is worse. Any comments?

I have been plagued for years with arthritis in my low back and buttocks area. I was diagnosed with Piriformis Syndrome last year and have spent the past 4 years having painful back injections that never fully helped with the pain or mobility. I've been taking Turmeric 2x a day for 1 WEEK and I already notice a huge difference! No more pain and my mobility is back. Thank goodness for Turmeric! I've even told my mom about my success with Turmeric now she's interested in trying it for her arthritis she has in her hands.Read More Read Less

Says not to take this supplement if you have gall bladder problems. I don't have a gall bladder anymore, so was wondering if anyone knows if it is ok to use this supplement.

Just started , have prostat cancer

My wife and I are professional musicians we started to take two Turmeric capsules a day because we were waking up with stiff, hurting hands which we felt were the start of arthritis. The Turmeric really helped to where we have no problems with our hands at all. That is a good thing for musicians.

No relief for back pain

As a retired mechanic, I have had severe arthritis in my right thumb at the base joint. Very much swelling in the meaty base of said thumb. Also swelling in knee and shoulder (post op arthritis). I have been getting cortisone injections in all areas for years. Taking Tumeric and almost completely eliminating sweets has almost completely eliminated all inflammation, pain and swelling. No longer taking injections, I am so thankful. I don't know if it's the diet modification (cut out almost all processed sugar) or the Tumeric or a combination of both, but I am effectively cured from the arthritis. I tell everyone about it, but they're understandably skeptical. For me, it is all good...great actually. Read More Read Less

I have a copper IUD and thus my cramps are a 10 on a pain scale of 10. They are present anywhere from 4-10 days a month. Itâ??s miserable. I started taking Turmeric and after 2 months my cramps are a 1 on a pain scale of 10 and they are now only 2-3 days a month. Itâ??s amazing! I did also start taking Fish Oil at the same time, so I donâ??t know if it is both or just the Turmeric. I havenâ??t felt this good in a long time!

My OA affects my hands and big toes. Turmeric doesn't seem to reduce the knots but is a big help in reduction of pain.

seemed to give ill-effects --- constipation, tightness in my chest, more difficult breathing

I have been in one of the worst depression strings I have experienced in the last 22 years I have suffered from depression. I was barely hanging on and on a wait list to see a counselor. I started researching treatments I could access immediately. Within 2 weeks starting taking a combo of Saffron and Tumeric daily, my mood swings are smaller and more manageable. I still have tough days, but I no longer have the debilitating level of hopelessness that existed prior. I am going in 5 weeks of taking the combo and have no intention of stopping. Life hasenâ??t felt this manageable in years! Saffron (Nusapure 88.5mg) and Tumeric (NatureMade)Read More Read Less

Recovering from ankle surgery, this keeps me going. Without it my ankle is still painful and I have a limp.

Still have joint pain

One of the most effective treatments I have used. I sprinkle dry turmeric on many foods just like salt and pepper. I use it daily. Fresh turmeric seems to be more powerful and I make a tea from it. Wouldn't want to be without it in my kitchen!

No effects until after 3 weeks, then completely rid me of joint pain

I have been taking turmeric root with Bioprene now for 4 years. 3 disks in lower back out and just feel to young for surgery. With the help of a Holistic Physician. I have been able to get off of any and all narcotics. Which I had a Horrible addiction too. I now work hand in hand with others to share my story of Pain, BP2, Anxiety and stress. This I believe is one of the best inflammatory reliefs, naturally on the market. Can take some people a couple weeks to feel the difference, first me was almost immediately. I take a nap dose of 1050mg daily. Along with other natural medications. I will NEVER go back to pain narcotics again. I use ibuprofen less then 1 time a month for severe pain as I live a very active life, owning 2 businesses and raising a home of boys. As my physician says, if your physician is scared of natural medications, find someone who is not. It has given me my life back.Read More Read Less
